Bulgaria's representative, DARA, will perform the song "Bangaranga" as the first contestant in the second semi-final on 14 May.

Bulgarian National Television (BNT) will broadcast both semi-finals and the grand final live, with all programmes beginning at 10pm.
This year’s Eurovision contest has been marked by political tensions, with several countries boycotting the competition and declining to broadcast it. The controversy stems from allegations that Israel manipulated the public vote last year, as well as criticism linked to the war in Gaza Strip.
