How did voting work?
For 2026, juries and audiences contributed 50% each. There were 11 national jury score sets and 12 audience sets, including Rest of the World.
Online voting opened during the live show. Each user received eight free votes, to distribute across at least three entries. Viewers in participating countries could not vote for their own country. The rules also allowed a maximum of ten purchased extra votes.
Why “12 Points”?
Twelve is the highest score in the familiar Eurovision points sequence: 1 through 8, then 10 and 12. That shared fan language inspired our publication’s name.
Is this the official website?
No. 12 Points Asia is an independent publication for fans. For organiser announcements, broadcasts and future voting, go to the official Eurovision Asia website.
