42 countries will take part in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku. Poland is out for the first time since 2002 when it was relegated due to the old rules, while Armenia announced its withdrawal on 7 March. Montenegro is back after a relatively short break.
The draw for the running order of the semis and for the spots of the six automatic finalists was held on 20 March as part of the Heads of Delegation meeting.
The allocation draw was held earlier in the year.
