The Bulgarian Black Sea resort Burgas has been chosen as the host city for the Eurovision Song Contest 2027.

It's the first time Bulgaria will stage the competition following the DARA's historic victory with 'Bangaranga' at this year's Eurovision in Vienna in May.

Many Bulgarian sources had tipped the capital Sofia as the favourite to win the hosting competition but in a statement on its website, the organisers EBU said Burgas was chosen as it offers "Eurovision fans a very unique setting for the world's largest live music event."
