The EBU finally announced that because of the huge number of countries (by preliminary information, already breaking the record of 42) there will be 2 Semi-Finals. The fresh piece of news is that the Semi-Finals won’t be held in the same day, but in two different days – on 20 and 22 May respectively. The Final is planned for 24 May.
A draw held at the end of January will determine the Semi-Final every country will be participating in. Your local broadcaster will have to air at least one of them, but depending on the local management, you might be able to enjoy both Semi-Finals.
Apart from this, again we’ll be able to view a couple of Countdown shows, which warm up the audience for the Grand Final. Again – it’s up to national decisions.
Seems like it’ll be a huge Eurovision week in May.
