What does a Eurovision entry receive when they’re crowned the winner?
Each finalist of Eurovision will receive a score for their performance and the country with the most points will win the contest.
The winning country will receive a glass microphone trophy which is a “custom design” made for the contest, the official Eurovision website states.
It’s a handmade trophy and made of “solid transparent glass with sand-blasted and painted detailing.”
The website also reveals that the songwriters and composers of the song sung by the winner of the contest also receive smaller versions of the Eurovision trophy.
Eurovision is airing on BBC One and BBC iPlayer until midnight on Saturday, May 13.
