The 69th Eurovision Song Contest Song Contest takes place in Switzerland on Saturday night .

The competition will be aired by national broadcasters in participating nations, on streaming service Peacock in the U.S. and in many countries on the Eurovision YouTube channel.

The winner is decided by a complex mix of public voting and points from juries of music industry professionals in all the participating countries.

Several of the national broadcasters that fund Eurovision have called for a discussion about Israel ’s participation.

The European Broadcasting Union , which runs Eurovision , pointed out that Israel is represented by its public broadcaster, KAN , not the government.

Tensions ran high last year , with the expulsion of the Dutch contestant over a backstage altercation.
