Is there a different visa procedure for Azerbaijan if you're going there for Eurovision?

Check the relevant page on most Azeri embassy websites. Here’s the one for the embassy in Holland:

In short:

  • With an invite (press, say) or ticket (the public), you can get a visa for Azerbaijan upon entering the country through one of the international airports. You can not get a visa, this way, when entering the country overland.
    You will be issued your visa immediately (but it seems it will still cost you).

  • With an invite or ticket, you can get a visa for Azerbaijan at any Azeri embassy. Depending on the embassy, this can take anything from ‘a few’ to 10 days.

  • Citizens from non-participating countries still have to get visas ‘the old way’, that is, through Azeri embassies.

See you in Baku!

There are special rules for it, the official site has a special page for this.
Basically as long as you have an invitation or ticket for the event, you get a visa on arrival.
