In Kyiv OGAE had a fan stand where fans helped people to vote which ten countries would make it to the final from semi final 1 and semi final 2 and then once all finalists were known, who will win the Eurovision song contest. It was set up by Marcus Davey from OGAE Rest of the world and also a board member of OGAE International. People with either F or P accreditation worked there in shifts.

ESCCovers was especially pleased to find 3 Hungarian fans during a shift and asked them about their favourite entries from 2017 and to see if we have a promo CD of that country for them, One of the three got this favourite, the other 2 probably their 4th or 5th favourite. Over the next days we will feature them, starting with Tibor Demeter who has been to Eurovisions before.
