50 Memes About The Eurovision 2023 Competition That Are Beyond Hilarious

Bored Panda got in touch with the curator of the Eurovision Memes Instagram page, which has a loyal following of over 33k people. The page creator was kind enough to share their thoughts on the 2023 contest. They told us that this year's finale "was the greatest" in a long time, with a very wide range of different songs and tons of competition. We were curious about which songs, in particular, impressed them the most.

"The performances that left the most impression on me were the Finnish performance 'Cha Cha Cha' by Käärijä, the Swedish performance 'Tattoo' by Loreen, and the Albanian performance 'Duje' by Albina and Familja Kelmendi," they told us.

They said that they really loved the energy of 'Cha Cha Cha,' as well as the power of 'Duje' which were "magnificent" and stuck in their head.

We were curious which of the two top songs, Sweden's or Finland's, the founder of @eurovisionmeme preferred. "I was really not sure who would win. Loreen has a great voice that conveys emotions in her song, meanwhile, Käärijä has a very rhythmic song with lots of positive energy. Both are great, but I prefer Finland," they shared.

In fact, this year's contest was so high quality that the curator of Eurovision Memes thought there were no weak songs at all. "I wasn't disappointed by anything," they said that there wasn't anything they did not like. "In general, this year's contest is one of the best."

"This year's contest has been much more perfected in every aspect such as the stage, the songs, the clothes, the artists, the interval act, everything," they heaped praise on how great 2023's Eurovision was produced.

Eurovision Week is a fabulous way to bring a ton of fun into your life. It’s an excuse to get together with your friends, have a good old time, and judge each other’s favorite songs with a cheeky grin and a sharp wit. The commentary and reactions are just as—if not more—interesting than the actual performances themselves.

And we are here for all the memes and tweets, 100%. It’s a weird but satisfying feeling when you realize that your personal opinion about someone’s singing skills, costumes, and stagecraft is being repeated by thousands upon thousands of people around the globe.

This year’s contest was held in Liverpool. Last year’s runners-up, the United Kingdom graciously hosted the contest on behalf of the 2022 winners Ukraine who are fighting back against the unprovoked Russian invasion.

Kalush Orchestra’s song ‘Stefania,’ which was pre-taped in Kyiv, was shown, culminating in the arrival of the band on the stage in Liverpool Arena. Stars like Joss Stone, Sam Ryder, and Andrew Lloyd Webber added their musical prowess to the performance, as did Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, with a surprise piano cameo. The message was very clear: Britain fully supports Ukraine, to the hilt.
