- Notable changes in 2013 included a revised voting calculation combining full jury and televote rankings, and the reintroduction of the “Parade of Nations”, which became a permanent feature thereafter; it was also the first contest since 1995 with a single host (Petra Mede).
- Denmark’s “Only Teardrops” won, and the victor was announced early once mathematically certain, a practice repeated in 2014–15.
- The year saw controversy over alleged Azerbaijani televote rigging, Finland’s on-stage same-sex kiss, and an on-air “MILF” remark that coincided with lost BBC audio.
