It’s getting exciting in Ukraine as NTU and the Eurovision 2017 Committee are all set to reveal the name the 2017 Eurovision host city during a special press conference which will be streamed live on NTU’s  official Youtube channel and Facebook page.

Will we be heading to Kyiv or Odesa next year for our beloved songfest? The suspense will be over tomorrow Friday 9 September at 12pm CET.

You can watch the press conference via a live stream from Kyiv with an English commentary here.

A total of 6 cities submitted their respective bids in order to host the forthcoming 2017 Eurovision Song Contest: Kherson, Dnipro, Odessa, Kyiv, Lviv and Kharkiv. The Ukrainian broadcaster shorlisted them to the final 3 ( Kyiv, Odessa and Dnipro).

Ukraine will be hosting the Eurovision Song Contest for the 2nd time thanks to Jamala’s Eurovision victory in Stockholm with her entry 1944.
