The final's time comes from Telemundo's announcement of 7pm ET. The National Costume Show and Preliminary Competition times come from ticket listings for 7pm in Puerto Rico, so they're more likely to change. Your own timezone appears automatically on the schedule.
Why the date changes in Asia and Europe
San Juan is on Atlantic Standard Time, four hours behind UTC. By the time the final begins, it's already the next day in the United Kingdom, where it starts at midnight. Fans in Spain and Nigeria need to stay up until 1am, and South Africa until 2am.
The best-placed fans
Latin America and the Caribbean get the most comfortable start, with the final beginning between 6pm and 9pm from Mexico City to São Paulo. Viewers in Asia get a morning show: 5:30am in India, 7am in Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia, and 8am in the Philippines, which makes it a difficult one to watch on a working Wednesday. In Sydney, it's 11am.
