Eurovision triggers betting interest surge

The Eurovision Song Contest in Basel on Saturday has triggered a surge in betting interest among punters worldwide.
This surge reflects Eurovision evolving into a dynamic event like traditional sports, with bettors seeking unique angles beyond the heavily tipped favourites.
Bookmakers have positioned Finland's comedic group KAJ as the clear favorite to win, while Austria's JJ and France's Louane are also drawing considerable betting interest.
Betting-Related searches on Sweden rose 57 percent recently, and Ladbrokes notes that the UK's act is the most popular bet despite 66/1 odds and high chances of finishing last or with zero points.
Experts say the high betting volumes and interest in native-language songs indicate fans engage deeply, signaling that Eurovision is now a major yearly betting event.
