Australia's Electric Fields faced a nail-biting finish at Eurovision 2024, missing out on the grand final in a shocking turn of events. Find out more about their journey and the fierce competition!

Australia's hopes were dashed as Electric Fields, the dynamic duo, failed to secure a spot in the grand final of Eurovision 2024 after competing in Semi Final 1 in Sweden. Their exclusion came as a harsh blow to Australia's aspirations in the iconic music competition, dealing a stunning finish to their performance. From a man with a mullet setting off fireworks to a Slovenian witch, this year's Eurovision showcased some of the most eccentric entries to date.

Australia joined the ranks of nations like Poland, Iceland, Moldova, and Azerbaijan as the first group to be eliminated from Eurovision 2024. Despite the setback, Electric Fields' vocalist Zaachariaha's powerful stage presence left a lasting impression. The competition saw the first 10 countries secure their spots in the Grand Final following a tense Semi Final, building anticipation for the climax of the event.

In a huge upset for Australia, their premature exit from this year's Eurovision marked a disappointing end to their journey. With their elimination at the semi-final stage, Australia's absence at the Sunday grand final was confirmed. Meanwhile, Eurovision 2024 continues to captivate audiences with its mix of flamboyant performances, ensuring a dramatic and memorable event.

The Eurovision 2024 competition in Malmö, Sweden, showcased the intense competition and extravagant performances that captured the attention of millions worldwide. With lavish costumes, elaborate sets, and incredible vocal talents on display, the event drew in over 100,000 tourists to a city with only 5200 hotel rooms, highlighting the massive scale of the musical extravaganza. Additionally, the eccentric and diverse range of entries from Luxembourg, Ireland, and other countries added to the colorful tapestry of Eurovision, solidifying its reputation as a show that thrives on bold creativity and boundary-pushing entertainment.
