DEPOT to host official Eurovision Song Contest screening event

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Eurovision Song Contest 2023 Grand Final Live Screening will be hosted at the DEPOT, Cardiff.

Cardiff is one of nine cities across the UK that will host an official screening event for the Eurovision Song Contest’s final on May 13, as it takes place in Liverpool. 

The BBC announced that Birmingham, Brighton, Cardiff, Darlington, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle, Nottingham and Sheffield will be among the places staging official screenings of the international music event’s grand final.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”29684″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]The BBC stated that these events would allow fans to experience the final in their local city. Last year’s winner was Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestra, while the UK’s Sam Ryder came in second place.

The semi-finals on Tuesday, May 9 and Thursday, May 11 and the grand final on Saturday, May 13 will all air live on BBC One as the event unfolds at the ACC Liverpool. More places will be added to screen the contest after the Department for Culture, Media and Sport provided more than £1 million to fund more than 30 cities to show the coronation of the King and Queen Consort as well as Eurovision.

The grand final in Liverpool will be the UK’s first time hosting Eurovision in 25 years, and it is expected that over 160 million people worldwide will watch the 2023 final.

Eurovision Minister Stuart Andrew said that it is an excellent opportunity to come together through music and celebrate what unites us.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
