Conchita Wurst, the stage persona of Austrian artist Thomas Neuwirth, emerged in 2011 and quickly became a global sensation, especially after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2014 with the empowering anthem "Rise Like A Phoenix." Known for combining Glam-Pop with powerful performances, Conchita captivates audiences at prestigious venues worldwide, including the Sydney Opera House and Berlin Philharmonie. Her musical repertoire includes platinum debut album “Conchita” and the gold-certified “From Vienna With Love,” showcasing collaborations with the Wiener Symphoniker and reimagining iconic hits from artists such as Barbra Streisand and Sam Smith.

In 2019, Neuwirth expanded his artistry under the name WURST, introducing an electronic dance sound that reflects personal experiences. Beyond music, Conchita champions LGBTI rights and engages in social issues through performances and advocacy. With a profound commitment to philanthropy, she actively supports causes such as AIDS awareness and human rights, solidifying her role as a cultural icon and voice for change.
