THE KEY HOST REQUIREMENTS

Below you can find the key requirements for a city to become the host of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in the United Kingdom.

  • The city or region’s capacity and capability to meet the BBC’s and EBU’s requirements.
  • Availability of resources and general experience in hosting large and complex events.

THE STORY SO FAR

This year (2022) the contest was won by the war-stricken country Ukraine, and their Eurovision act Kalush orchestra with the song “Stefania”. Because of several reasons, among them “safety”, this country is not able to host the upcoming contest in their own country, that is why the United Kingdom has offered to host the next version of Eurovision in their country. The last time a winning country could not host the next edition of the contest was back in 1979, when Israel won, and the following contest was held in The Hague (The Netherlands). Israel won two consecutive years, and did want to host the contest again for several reasons, among them financial reasons.
