The winner of the Eurovision Song Contest is determined through a combination of voting from both a jury panel and the viewing public. The contest consists of two semi-finals and a grand final, during which each participating country performs a song that is then scored by both a professional jury and the public through a televoting system.

In the semi-finals, the top ten countries with the highest combined scores from the jury and public voting move on to the grand final. In the final, each country then presents their song again, and the same voting process is used to determine the winner.

During the televoting process, viewers can cast votes for their favorite songs by phone, text message, or online. The votes from the public are then combined with the votes from the professional jury, which consists of music industry professionals from each participating country.

The country with the highest combined score from both the jury and public votes is declared the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest.
