Eurovision 2023 News

[Soldi]

I dream of travelling to Eurovision on the Norwich to Liverpool Lime Street

 

[Soldi]

Apparently the BIG REVEAL will be on The One Show on Friday.

CONFIRMED by GRAHAM NORTON.

 

[Apoca]

Fingers crossed for Valentina's backyard.

I’ve stayed there. It’s nice.

Any chance of a LEAK? @funky I'll slip your cousin a fiver

sa

Any chance of a LEAK? @funky I'll slip your cousin a fiver

She’s giving me nothing!

Just things that have been said my gut tells me Liverpool.

 

[Soldi]

Fuck Liverpool! I don't want to go back THERE for two weeks

Just things that have been said my gut tells me Liverpool.

[GNL]

OOPS

 

[Pingu]

I’m not sure that’s enough time for Glasgow either really!

 

[GNL]

Eurovision is cancelled. Thanks Olly.

 

[Lucille]

How is Olly Murs doing an ARENA TOUR in the year of our Lord, 2023?

 

[Soldi]

Sheffield isn’t on there OMG

 

[dUb]

oh shite is it gonna be the 27th? I took a PUNT and booked non-refundable accommodation for the two previous weekends

(in the worst hostel in Glasgow it turns out when I read the reviews post-booking so maybe for the best lol x)

 

[Soldi]

Isn’t it 6-8 weeks they need? Even if it was the 27th, they’d still need the Hydro empty by the week before the 21st.

Eurovision fans can be so stupid.

 

[COB]

Oh dUb not the Bellgrove Hotel

I think the really stupid one in this scenario is Olly Murs.

In the same boat here too

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Poor Andre Rieu, if it is in Glasgow and the 27th, he has to get chucked.

MANIFESTING THE 20TH

Are hotels already ridiculously booked up before there's even been an announcement?

Eurovision LOONS really do TAKE THE BISCUIT

Very much so! The only available hotels were in the thousands a night when I looked

Yeah, I had a quick browse this morning and spotted that. INSANE!

 

[VoR]

More rooms will be released closer to the time. It’s always this way. I haven’t booked later than late Feb/March for years and I’ve always been fine.

 

[Madison]

I wonder if the price will crash once 90% of people fail to get tickets (or better still, if Liverpool is announced).

Hotels are block booked by accommodation bureaus for delegations, far in advance, and they cancel the ones they don't need.

 

[COB]

There are quite a lot of new hotels being built in Glasgow that should be open by May, I have no idea how it works in terms of them taking bookings in advance of opening but maybe those will also become available?

VoR can you do a dummy's guide for us amateurs please

 

[Soldi]

I recall we booked our Turin accommodation for the correct dates the day after Italy won

* Don't panic book - if you shop around you'll find something.
* Don't fixate on getting a finals ticket as the be-all and end-all. Go for semi or Jury tickets instead, you'll have just as much fun for far less stress/cash
* There are plenty of really fun alternative ways to watch the final in the host city. I haven't been in the arena for the finals since 2016!

The OVO Hydro website has just deleted the Olly Murs (21st Apr) and Andre Rieu (27th May) dates from the website

Go see them in Liverpool!

 

[COB]

See Andre Rieu in his natural home, MAASTRICHT

 

[COB]

Or beamed live to cinemas around the world.

The April/May dates are back up again, maybe they saw my post

April gone too now.

Thanks, semis are a no no if you can’t book time off in the week though. OH WELL

This year is surely going to be a worse bunfight than ever- all those annoying straights who suddenly love Eurovision thanks to OUR SAM.
