NEP Europe to Deliver Broadcast Solutions for Eurovision Song Contest 2026 in Vienna

NEP Europe, part of NEP Group, has announced it will deliver broadcast solutions for the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 in Vienna, supporting Austrian national broadcaster ORF in partnership with the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). This is NEP's seventh consecutive year on the event.

NEP's TFC broadcast control system will manage IP-based SMPTE ST 2110 signal routing, multiview capabilities, and redundant support across the production. NEP is also providing main and backup outside broadcast facilities, wireless RF camera systems, a technical operations center, and engineering crew.

A key addition this year is the integration of ARRI Alexa 35 cinematic cameras into the live multi-camera workflow, delivered in collaboration with Riedel Communications. Creative Technology (CT), also part of NEP Group, will provide LED screens and display solutions for the event's stage design.

Eurovision continues to evolve both creatively and technically, and we're proud to provide the scale and depth of solutions required to bring the production to life for its massive global fanbase, says Lise Heidal, President, NEP Europe. Our teams are excited to support ORF in delivering this year's show from Vienna-our seventh consecutive year on the event-working together with our partners to enable new visual approaches while maintaining the reliability and flexibility NEP is known for in global productions.

We've worked extensively with a wide range of camera systems and technologies over the years, and bringing the ARRI Alexa 35 into Eurovision represents another exciting innovation, says Axel Engstr m, Project Director, NEP Europe. Our expertise lies in integrating these tools seamlessly into complex live workflows, enabling new creative possibilities while maintaining the reliability and scale the event demands. We're looking forward to bringing these cinematic cameras into the unique environment of Eurovision.
