Free-entry watch parties on 14 November at Fabric Club Burgas and Missia Concept in Sofia, starting at 15:30.
Six months after her historic victory in Vienna, DARA is returning to the Eurovision stage – this time in Bangkok. On Saturday, 14 November, the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 winner will make a special guest appearance at the Grand Final of the first-ever Eurovision Song Contest Asia, where she will perform a special version of “Bangaranga”. Bulgarian fans will be able to enjoy the live broadcast together at specially organised watch parties at Fabric Club Burgas and Missia Concept in Sofia. Admission is free.
“Bangaranga” won over both the jury and the public in Vienna, earning a total of 516 points and securing Bulgaria's first-ever Eurovision victory. Now, the song will be performed in a new, special version for audiences across Asia, with DARA's performance creating a musical connection between Vienna and Bangkok.
Seventy years after the first Eurovision Song Contest, the competition is expanding into Asia. The Grand Final will take place at One Bangkok Forum, where artists from 11 countries – Bangladesh, Bhutan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Thailand, the Philippines and South Korea – will compete for the inaugural title, performing in 10 local languages and English.
The show will begin at 15:30 Bulgarian time and will be broadcast live on television in the participating countries, as well as streamed free of charge on the official Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@EurovisionSongContest/streams (Opens an external website)).
To celebrate the occasion, the team behind the Bulgarian Independent Eurovision Website and OGAE Bulgaria are organising watch parties at Fabric Club Burgas and Missia Concept Sofia. Doors will open at 14:30, one hour before the show begins.
“Bring your flags and your best Eurovision spirit! When DARA takes the stage in Bangkok, we want everyone to sing ‘Bangaranga’ along with her,” the organisers shared.
The initiative is supported by Fabric Club Burgas, Missia Concept и Wiwibloggs.
