Fingers crossed it’s held somewhere up north, personally would love it to be Edinburgh.

 

[Zoophonic]

It won’t be Edinburgh. They haven’t got a venue big enough.

It was kind of announced unofficially last month that we we would host. Favourites are Glasgow and Liverpool. Cardiff 3rd.

Already been whined about on social media as a waste of the license fee.

Miserable defund the BBC tossers.

Greatest Television night of the year in my book. Gay Christmas. Worth every penny.

Love Eurovision, going back to being allowed to stay up late and watch Lynsey De Paul in 1977! Hopefully another decent UK entry. Reckon it will be in the Pool and a bit of Beatles themed thing?!

I feel like Eurovision has almost had a resurgence in the last few years.

It's not generally my thing, but I found myself captivated by the randomness and theatrics of it when watching it with the wife and kids over the last few years.

By anti BBC RWNJs probably who are happy for the Government to spaff £600k per individual to send them to Rwanda

The prices make Gibbos walk up prices seem halfway reasonable.

Spooky!
Only was listening to Rock Bottom this afternoon in the car!

Why?

Why?

70s compilation. Why?

 

[Cardiffdaffs]

Tickets are pricey yes so I recommend going to one of the semi finals or the "family final" which is cheaper and they are the same acts and songs. Tickets for the grand final will be as rare as rocking horse poo sadly.

 

[Charlie]

Not sure if I'd go to the actual event , but we do watch it every year here at home .
It's just good entertainment I believe

 

[lostinyorkshire]

Can we not do it at The Riverside?

 

[Cress]

Belfast or Newcastle

 

[Ebor]

Seems a good decision. Spaceman would've won it anyway in normal times
As it's the BBC it'll be London, Manchester or possibly Liverpool.
Manchester will be my guess

 

[Zoophonic]

I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes to Glasgow. BBC have a big HQ right by the venue and it doesn’t have an Event booked at the Hydro in May next year yet.
