It's the big night for the Quebecer. The singer La Zarra represents this Saturday night the France in the final of Eurovision 2023 which takes place this year in Liverpool, United Kingdom.
The competition is organized by the British on behalf of Ukraine, winner last year with "Stefania" of the group Kalush Orchestra.
The France in the first part of the table
To see the French representative shine and sing "la graaaaande France", it will not take so long. Like last year, the France will move to 6th position, around 21:38 p.m. All with a scenography that required no less than five months of work.

We wish him more luck than the Bretons Alvan & Ahez, French representatives last year, who could not do better than a 24th place in Turin (Italy).

In case of victory, the France is ready to organize Eurovision in 2024. However, due to the 2024 Paris Olympics, another city than the capital would surely be privileged, such as Lille or Nice, which will host Junior Eurovision in November after Lissandro's victory in 2022. The time when the entertainment managers of France Télévisions had "orders to lose" seems to be well over.
A contest that will last until the end of the night
And if you want to see the favorites that will compete with La Zarra tonight, note Sweden in 9th position around 21:55 and Finland around 22:13, 13th to pass. The performances of the 26 candidates in the running are expected to end around 23:20 p.m., before the whole of Europe is invited to vote for their favourite songs.

However, it will be necessary to wait until the end of the night, around 1 am, to know the result and to know if La Zarra will succeed Marie Myriam, last French winner in 1977.
