We saw a newspaper wrote that 670 songs have been received by the jury for the Eurovision song contest in 2018. 670 songs is a very big number – the highest in the last 20 years. The jury will choose six songs for the TV-show where the actual Swiss entry for Lisbon will be selected. Lets hope that among these 670 songs are some real gems which could give Switzerland again a high position in Eurovision.
Lisbon has been confirmed as the host city of the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest. The semi-finals will be on 8 and 10 May with the grand final on Saturday 12 May.
After the victory by Salvador Sobral with Amar Pelos Dois in Ukraine in May this year it will be the pleasure for Portugal to hold the contest for the very first time.
The Executive Supervisor of the EBU, Jon Ola Sand, told the press “We are very pleased to announce that RTP will be hosting the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon. The City has presented an exemplary proposal, and we look forward to working together to make Portugal’s first ever Eurovision the most exciting one yet. We would like to congratulate RTP on their professional and detailed assessments of all the bids.”
