​​Welcome to Split
"Sportiest City in the World"

Welcome to Split, Croatia's hidden gem on the dazzling Dalmatian coast, where history, culture, and Mediterranean beauty converge to create an unforgettable travel experience. Step into the heart of the city, where ancient meets modern in a vibrant tapestry of life. Explore the iconic Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site that seamlessly blends ancient ruins with bustling markets, charming cafes, and trendy boutiques. Feel the Adriatic breeze on your skin as you stroll along the Riva Promenade, where locals and visitors alike gather to savor the enchanting sea views and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Sip on a cup of espresso and immerse yourself in the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle. For the history buff, Split is a treasure trove of historical wonders. Visit the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, an architectural masterpiece that offers panoramic views of the city from its bell tower. Wander through the cellars of the palace, where you'll find a labyrinth of tunnels and chambers that whisper tales of the past. The azure waters of the Adriatic beckon you to discover their secrets. Spend your days basking on pristine beaches or sailing to nearby islands, where hidden coves and crystal-clear waters await. Dive into the underwater world of colorful marine life, and snorkel in the pristine Adriatic. Indulge your taste buds in the flavors of Dalmatian cuisine, where fresh seafood and local olive oil take center stage. Try traditional dishes like pasticada and peka, and savor the exquisite wines of the region. As the sun sets, Split's nightlife comes alive. Join the locals in celebrating life at lively bars, clubs, and beach parties along the coast. Dance the night away under the starry Mediterranean sky. Split is a city where ancient history and modern vibrancy coexist in perfect harmony. So, pack your bags and let Split be your gateway to a world of wonders. Welcome to a place where every street corner reveals a new story, and where each day promises a new adventure waiting to be embraced and cherished forever.

The Result

Countries receiving most 12 points / Australia, Denmark, Greece and Netherlands, 3
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Australia, Germany and Ireland
Countries receiving points from most juries / Denmark, 23
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / Belgium in 6th place with 8 points from Australia and Turkey as highest marks
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / United Kingdom in 25th place getting 12 points from Poland and Greece

Denmark took the lead following the votes from the 4th jury and never looked back, somehow taking out the excitement of the voting. With an impressive margin of 33 points, Estonia was left with the Silver and Romania took the bronze. Canada and Greece rounded out the top 5.

Denmark is a founding member of Global Music and even hosted the very first edition. In their first 17 participations, Denmark finished in the top 10 an impressive 11 times including 7 consecutive times from GM04 through GM10. However, the medals had eluded them until they claimed 3 in a row with Annika Askman bringing them their first gold medal in GM18, which was followed with a bronze medal on home ground and another gold medal for Bryan Rice. And medals apparently come in clusters for Denmark, as they took home the silver the edition before their third gold medal was awarded to Kendra Lou in GM28. In the 15 editions since then, Denmark has racked up two silver medals, a bronze medal and another 7 top 10 results, showing that they are always a force to be reckoned with! Well done Denmark, Trine Jepsen and Mikkel!
