It’s now time for the rehearsals of semi-final 2 to take place this afternoon, where the 18 participants will take to the stage at the Globe Arena for a second time! We here at ESCToday are ready to bring you the latest news live from the arena itself.

Eneda Tarifa is the penultimate artist to take to the stage this evening with only one more act to follow.

Wearing a long golden dress onstage, Eneda performs on a blue-lighted stage alongside 3 backing vocalists, all of whom appear in the background. Golden sparkles light up on the LED screens later on in the performance, giving the song a fairytale-feel. Lights subtly shine around the stage throughout the performance.

Check out Albania’s second rehearsal below!
