Eurovision posts official Grand Final recap plus full jury and televote videos
- The official Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel uploaded three Grand Final results videos on May 18, separating the recap, jury sequence and televote announcement. - Two of the uploads were full results segments: “The Jury Results of Eurovision 2026” and “Public Vote - The Televote Results.” - Full split results remain available through Eurovision’s official results pages and related videos on Eurovision platforms.
The official Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel posted three Grand Final follow-up videos on Monday, breaking out the 2026 final into separate recap and voting segments. The uploads included a short “Grand Final | Recap” clip and two longer videos covering the jury sequence and the public vote, according to the channel listings. The postings came two days after the Grand Final in Vienna on Saturday, May 16. Eurovision’s official site describes the 2026 contest as the 70th edition and lists Austria’s JJ, with “Wasted Love,” as the winner. ### Which videos went up on May 18? Monday’s uploads on the official channel were titled “Grand Final | Recap,” “The Jury Results of Eurovision 2026 | Grand Final | #UnitedByMusic,” and “Public Vote - The Televote Results of Eurovision 2026 | Grand Final | #UnitedByMusic,” according to YouTube listings. The two voting videos were presented as the “full announcement” of each part of the score reveal. (youtube.com) The jury video description says it contains “the full announcement of the jury vote” from the 2026 Grand Final. The televote video description says it contains “the full announcement of the public vote” from the same show. ### Why split the Grand Final results into separate jury and televote clips? Eurovision has long published detailed split results showing how national juries and the public voted. (youtube.com) Eurovision’s official “Full Results” pages say that, from 2014 onward, organizers chose to reveal detailed split jury and televoting results by country “to increase openness.” (youtube.com) Martin Green, the Eurovision Song Contest director, also published an open letter ahead of Vienna 2026 about “changes to the voting framework of the Contest,” according to Eurovision’s official site. The new May 18 uploads fit that broader pattern of documenting the two halves of the result separately on official platforms. (eurovision.tv) ### What do the two longer videos actually show? The jury-results upload is the full scoreboard sequence for the professional juries during the Grand Final, based on the YouTube title and description. The televote upload is the full public-vote reveal, again presented as a standalone segment rather than embedded only inside the complete broadcast. That matters for viewers who want the voting sequence without rewatching the entire final. (eurovision.tv) Eurovision’s official site already offers country-by-country split results, while the YouTube videos preserve the televised order and presentation of the announcements. That is an inference based on the format of the uploads and Eurovision’s separate official results archive. ### How does this fit with Eurovision’s official results archive? (youtube.com) Eurovision’s website maintains a “Full Results” database that lets users select an event and a voting country to inspect detailed jury and televote breakdowns. The site says those split results are published for convenience and transparency. The YouTube postings add a video record to that archive. (youtube.com) The recap clip gives a condensed version of the Grand Final, while the jury and televote uploads preserve the two score announcements as they appeared on screen. ### What else is confirmed about Eurovision 2026? Eurovision’s official site says the Vienna 2026 Grand Final took place on Saturday, May 16. The same site’s participant listings identify JJ of Austria, performing “Wasted Love,” as the winner attached to the 2026 contest pages. (eurovision.tv) The official YouTube channel remains the main hub for post-show clips, including performances, interviews and results segments. (youtube.com) Eurovision’s website and app continue to host the contest archive, participant pages and detailed voting results for viewers looking beyond the three May 18 uploads. Monday’s postings leave the 2026 Grand Final with a fuller official record across platforms: the recap on YouTube, the separate jury and televote sequences on YouTube, and the country-level split results on Eurovision’s website. (eurovision.tv) Eurovision’s official results pages and channel listings are the places to watch for any additional post-final clips from Vienna 2026. (youtube.com 1) (youtube.com 2)
