What is the Eurovision, exactly?


The Eurovision Song Contest is an international song competition which has taken place every year for over 60 years. Each participating country submits their song and it’s up to the other countries to vote for the winner. We will say no more in that regard; the performances should speak for themselves.


Where and when will it take place?


This year’s contest will consist of three separate shows: the first Semi-final, the second Semi-final and the Grand Final which will take place on the 12, 14 and 16 May respectively.


You can even make a holiday out of it!
