Bulgarian singer Dara wins 70th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, beating 24 other countries to take the crown of the world's biggest live televised music show.
Bulgarian singer Dara won the 70th Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna on Saturday, securing Bulgaria’s first-ever victory in the competition with her energetic dance anthem “Bangaranga.”
Dara triumphed over 24 other finalists during the grand final, impressing both national juries and viewers with a high-energy performance and tightly choreographed routine. Israeli singer Noam Bettan finished in second place, while Romania’s Alexandra Căpitănescu came third.
Although not considered among the pre-contest favourites, Dara gained momentum throughout Eurovision week.
The final, hosted in Austria after last year’s Austrian victory, once again drew millions of viewers across Europe and beyond.
