The Eurovision Song Contest’s final took place tonight (May 13) and Sweden was named the 2023 winner.

Viewers saw 26 countries get through to the final and perform their chosen song before Sweden was crowned.

Loreen sang Tattoo and came out on top with 583 points.

The singer has a special place in the hearts of Pembrokeshire people after announcing in the semi final that St Catherine's Island, Tenby, was one of her favourite places in the world.

The 39-year-old has become the first woman – and only the second person – to claim the coveted glass microphone trophy twice.

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 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.

Who was the UK’s act and where did they place?

The UK’s Eurovision entry for 2023 was 25-year-old Mae Muller from London.

Muller came in at 25th place with her track I Wrote A Song.

She was awarded 24 points for the United Kingdom for her performance on Saturday night.

Last year, the UK came second in Turin with Sam Ryder performing his track Space Man.
