I am no fan of Eurovision but it is good value for national pride:

Eurovision is funded by participating broadcasters and this contribution is a total of €6.2 million (£5.2 million), combined.

Only 6M €? For an event of that size that feels a lot cheaper than I would have thought.

Don't forget that there is also income from advertising and ticket sales.
