Blanca Paloma and Chanel

The winner of the second Benidorm Fest, Blanca Paloma, will represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.

Her flamenco song ‘Eaea’ beat off seven competitors on Saturday night reaching an almost-maximum 169 points, only missing out on five points from the demoscopic televote and two points awarded by the studio jury.

Eight songs reached the Benidorm Fest final after 2 semi-finals saw 10 other songs eliminated earlier this week.
