TIRANA, May 16 – Albanian singer Alis Kallaçi sent a video message from Vienna to the RTSH1 programme “Në Kohë Reale” [In Real Time] after qualifying for the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 final. He thanked supporters and said the competition had not ended yet. Alis invited viewers to vote for Albania in Saturday’s final and asked the public to support song number 05, which represents Albania with “Nân” [Mother].
Meanwhile, the Eurovision final takes place this May 16 in Vienna. Albania will perform fifth in the running order after Belgium and before Greece. Alis secured qualification during the second semi-final at the Wiener Stadthalle arena, where his performance brought Albania into the grand final.
The final will open with Denmark, followed by Germany and Israel. RTSH1, RTSH Muzikë and Radio Tirana will broadcast the event live for Albanian audiences. In addition, Eurovision organisers said voting will open shortly before the first performance and remain available throughout the show and for around 40 minutes after the final song. Viewers may vote up to 10 times, while online voting through esc.vote will remain available for audiences in non-participating countries under Eurovision rules.
