Welcome to Rio de Janeiro
"Marvelous City"
Welcome to Rio de Janeiro, the exhilarating jewel of Brazil and a city that pulses with life, energy, and vibrant culture. Nestled along the sparkling shores of the Atlantic Ocean, Rio invites you to embark on a journey that will immerse you in its dazzling landscapes, rich traditions, and exhilarating festivities. Start your adventure on the iconic Copacabana Beach, where golden sands stretch as far as the eye can see. Bask in the sun's warm embrace, take a refreshing dip in the ocean, or join a game of beach volleyball with the friendly locals. As the day turns to night, savor caipirinhas at beachside kiosks and dance to the rhythm of samba music under the stars. The statue of Christ the Redeemer atop Corcovado Mountain is an emblem of Rio's beauty and spirituality. Ascend this natural wonder via a cogwheel train to witness breathtaking panoramic views of the city's skyline, framed by lush rainforests and pristine beaches. Explore the historic district of Santa Teresa, a charming neighborhood filled with colonial architecture, colorful houses, and bohemian vibes. Wander through the cobblestone streets, visit art studios and cafes, and immerse yourself in the neighborhood's creative spirit. Rio de Janeiro is home to a rich cultural tapestry, and you can experience it at the samba schools, where dancers and musicians prepare for the world-famous Carnival. Marvel at their vibrant costumes, listen to the infectious beats of drums, and join in the festivities that captivate millions each year. Foodies will delight in Rio's culinary offerings, from savory feijoada (a hearty black bean stew) to succulent churrasco (barbecue). Sample tropical fruits at local markets and sip fresh coconut water straight from the coconut while exploring the city. For nature enthusiasts, Tijuca National Park offers lush hiking trails, hidden waterfalls, and diverse flora and fauna within Rio's urban boundaries. Discover the vibrant colors of the Botanical Garden or take a cable car ride to the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain for panoramic views. As the sun sets over Rio, the nightlife comes alive with a sizzling blend of music, dance, and celebration. Explore the lively Lapa neighborhood, known for its historic arches and eclectic bars, or venture into the pulsating rhythms of Rio's samba clubs. Rio de Janeiro extends a warm and inviting embrace to visitors from around the world, inviting you to experience the warmth of its people, the vibrancy of its culture, and the beauty of its landscapes.

The Result
Countries receiving most 12 points / Netherlands, 5
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Denmark, Hungary and Saint Lucia
Countries receiving points from most juries / Denmark, 21
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / Switzerland in 11th with 10 points from Spain as highest mark
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / Andorra in 26th getting 12 points from Thailand
In the beginning Lebanon took the lead, but neighbour Israel quickly took over leading most of the way. However, towards the end of the jury vote they were overtaken by 4 countries with Netherlands on top ahead of South Korea, China, Denmark and then Israel. But as they say, it isn't over till the fat lady sings... Once again the jury vote and the televote were not much alike. Israel was the favourite with the televote ahead of United Kingdom (10th with the juries), Serbia (14th), Switzerland (19th) and Portugal (25th). The jury favoutire, Netherlands, finished 11th with the televote, which meant that the favourite of the public, Israel, leap frogged four countries to take home the trophy just three points in front of Netherlands. Denmark finished 7th in the televote and took the bronze, with South Korea and United Kingdom rounding out the top 5.
Israel is one of the founding members of Global Music and was one of the most succesful countries in the beginning. Their first medal, one of silver, was won on only their second participation, and the very next edition - in GM03 - they took one step up the podium to claim their first gold medal, when Miri Mesika finished on top. Only 5 editions later, Israel scored the most points again for Diamondz and claimed their second trophy. Israel did pretty well after that, often finishing in the top 10, but they had to wait until GM94 for their third triumph. That gold medal was won by Chen Aharoni. Then came a period with lesser results and Israel also took a couple of breaks from the contest and changed their HoD. During this time they did reach the top 10 another ten times, before Fabi took over as new HoD just last month. He kicked that career off with a top 10 and now crowns it with a gold medal in only his second showing as Israeli HoD. Israel has now competed 141 times, reaching 101 finals, finishing in the top 10 on 41 occasions and winning 6 medals. Well done Israel, Dennis Lloyd and Fabi!
