With about a month to go until the pre-party takes place, the organisers of the London Eurovision Party have revealed the names of the hosts for this year’s event. Sissal, Cesár Sampson, and Tia Kofi will guide the audience through the show.
Three familiar faces for this year’s event

She returned to DMGP this year, where she came 3rd with her song “Infinity.”
Cesár Sampson is a singer and songwriter from Austria who was internally selected to represent the nation at Eurovision 2018. He won the jury vote with 271 points but finished 3rd overall. Since his participation, he has taken part in numerous Eurovision events, including being the co-host of ESCZ 2024 and Vienna Calling – Wer singt für Österreich? 2026.
Tia Kofi is a British drag queen and singer who is best known for their participation in RuPaul’s Drag Race UK in 2021. Eurovision fans may remember Tia as one of the hosts of the Turquoise Carpet in 2024, together with Swedish drag queen Elecktra.
