Ireland's bid to make it to the Eurovision final on Saturday May 14th, kicks off with Brooke Scullion's performance of That's Rich in the second semi-final of the competition.

Derry girl Brooke Scullion’s bid for Eurovision glory starts with Ireland performing 10th in tonight’s semi-final live from Turin.

Brooke’s up-tempo number That’s Rich was selected as Ireland’s entry following The Late Late Show Eurosong Special earlier this year.

Eurovision stalwart commentator Marty Whelan will be in the commentary box in Italy, with his inimitable style taking viewers through the entries as they take through the stage.

The winner of the Eurovision Song Contest will be chosen through 2 Semi-Finals and a Grand Final.

Traditionally, 6 countries are automatically pre-qualified for the Grand Final. The so-called ‘Big 5’ — France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom — and the host country.

The remaining countries will take part in one of the two Semi-Finals. From each Semi-Final, the best 10 will proceed to the Grand Final. This brings the total number of Grand Final participants to 26.

Plus: RTE Radio One Thursday 12th of May 2022 8pm – 10pm All eyes on Ireland’s entry “That’s Rich” by Brooke; as Neil Doherty and Zbyszek Zalinski bring you the glitz, glamour, fun and drama of the Eurovision Song Contest semi-final in Turin, Italy.
