The 2022 Eurovision Bidding Race

RAI, the Italian national broadcaster, invited all the cities and regions in Italy to officially apply to host  2022 Eurovision Song Contest next year. 17 cities initially showcased their interest in the beginning, but only eleven of them reportedly submitted the bid book after receiving the 2022 Eurovision rules and regulations. Now the 11 cities have been whittled down to five. Hence Bologna, Milan, Turin, Pesaro and Rimini are in the final leg of the battle in their quest to welcome the Eurovision bandwagon next year in Italy.

The official announcement of the 2022 Eurovision City is expected to take place in due course.
