Sara Yuen, head of entertainment at the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), visited Latvia to get an impression of the organisation of the Eurovision Song Contest 2003.
Yuen was informed by the organisation team of the Latvian broadcaster LTV about the artistic solution of the show, the tickets strategy, as well as the latest versions of the logo. She viewed a couple of postcards too. Just the first, rough version to get an idea, because the professional editing will be made after all the material for the clips of 26 countries is shot.
During the visit, Sara Yuen talked with Aivars Auzins, producer of the popular children popfestival Sunbeam and the management of LTV about a possible participation of LTV in the so-called Children Eurovision, which will take place in Copenhagen next autumn. “The attitude of the management was very positive”, LTV's spokesperson Ilona Berzina told esctoday.com.
Also, Berzina told esctoday.com more about the logo for the upcoming contest: “The final version of the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 logo is confirmed by the EBU and will soon be available for the major websites”. In the meantime, Latvian television representatives keep saying the logo of the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 will differ from the Latvian national final logo.
