A 1,800 square metre tent has been chosen as the backstage venue for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.

The huge tent has been raised and has been placed behind the B&W Arena where this year’s contest will take place on the 6, 8 10 of May.

Speaking to Eurovision.tv, Sisse van Wylich-Muxoll, DR production manager had this to say.

“It will be the busiest place in the whole Eurovision Island. Hundreds of crew members and all the participants have to go through here. All the props will go in and out of here. There must be an audio studio where the participants will get their in-ear monitors and there will be a special “quick change” space where artists can dress quickly as well. The hosts will of course get their own space and there will be a room only for walkie-talkies,” Sisse van Wylich-Muxoll
