From Reddit ESC: Meteorological experts will tell you you're not meant to stare directly at an eclipse, but Eurovision experts are saying that you shouldn't - and won't be able to - take your eyes off Delta Goodrem's performance for Australia! There's a lot of sparkle to be enjoyed here. From the mic stand to the graphics on both the stage floor and the screen, Team Australia have taken the light and shadow theme of their Eurovision entry Eclipse and are setting out to have a lot of fun playing with it. Delta is wearing a custom couture gown which we've been told is adorned with approximately 7,000 (!!!) Swarovski crystals, therefore paying homage to Vienna's signature sparkle. Around 500 hours of work went into crafting this chiffon beauty, and that shines through splendidly. The Vienna connection was an important one for Delta and the Australian delegation to make. Not only is Delta Goodrem a classically trained pianist and therefore holds Vienna's musical heritage in high regard (she's also invited a harpist to join her on stage), but the Austrian capital also played host to Australia's first Eurovision participation back in 2015, for the Contest's 60th edition, and so it made sense for them to mark the 70th in a special way. Delta's staging evolves from a moon world to a sun world, culminating in an epic moment that will take the concept of the song to extraordinary new heights. And we can't tell you exactly what just yet, but she's using a pyro effect that no other country will be at Vienna 2026! SHE'S COMING FOR THE WINNNNNNNNN
