Eurovision has a brand new logo and branding for 2026 — and song contest Director Martin Green explains what it really means.

Eurovision Song Contest Director Martin Green joins us to talk about the contest’s new look — and why it’s all about evolution, not revolution.

In this interview, Martin shares how he sees his role as protecting one of the most celebrated entertainment brands in the world, while also listening to the fan community. He explains why transparency matters, how grassroots fan movements helped shape Eurovision into what it is today, and why he enjoys hearing all the feedback — from the heartfelt to the cheeky.

Martin also makes it clear: the new look is not a distraction from controversies, but a way to push the brand forward, strengthen its identity, and safeguard its intellectual property for the future. He also discusses the importance of building trust and keeping an open dialogue with fans, even on difficult issues.

What do you think of the new logo and branding?

We chat with EMMY at House of Helvetia in Basel. Despite singing about the famed Russian space dog Laika (the star of her song "Laika Party"), she admits to owning a kitty cat. She says that all animals are welcome to her "Laika Party" — but not animals that eat other animals. She also discusses her Irish co-writer, her brother Ereland, and how Ireland has embraced her.

JJ's "Wasted Love" has consistently been near the top of the Eurovision 2025 betting odds since its reveal in Austria. But will this emotional ballad get lost in a sea of jury favourites? Combining Filipino telenovela with Austrian classical opera, JJ has crafted a song like no other this year.  In this episode of "What Really Happened at Eurovision?", Professor Joe Bennett, a musicologist from the Berklee College of Music, tells us about the oscillating vocal effects that take Austria's entry this year from ballroom to club.
