Innsbruck

As we reported yesterday, Innsbruck has confirmed they have made a bid to host the contest in their Olympiahallen. The city has experience in hosting major international events – having hosted the very first Youth Winter Olympic games in 2012, football matches during the 2008 European championships as well as Olympic figure skating and ice hockey in the 1964 And 1976 games.

The head of the Olympiahallen Michael Bielowski, claims the venue meets all of the requirements set out by the host broadcaster and that availability will not be an issue.


Pete has followed the Eurovision Song Contest since the early 2000s. He joined the ESCToday team in November 2013, and attended his first contest live in 2015.
