NPO has asked a total of 100 Dutch individuals consisting of both well known personalities and unknown people to contribute and share their ideas and creativity for Eurovision 2020.

The so called  ‘Magic 100‘ were asked for tips on how to make the event more fun to watch and attractive for a broad audience. They were also asked if they had any ideas on how viewers can be more actively involved in the event.

Mr. Sietse Bakker (ESC 2020 Executive Producer) says:

We want the Eurovision Song Contest to become an event in which the Netherlands recognizes itself and for Europe to be positively surprised.

The Dutch are creative, certainly in the field of making television and organizing events. We have chosen to use that creativity to take the event to a higher level in 2020. Not necessarily bigger, but better.
