Eurovision will take place in May in the Swedish city of Malmo. The semi-finals will be held on May 7 and 9, the grand final of the competition will take place on Saturday, May 11.
Artists and bands continue to cancel their performances at Eurovision Village events in Malmö. This was reported by Israel Breaks Rules on the social network X.
In particular, the opening of the Eurovillage is scheduled for May 4. The list of performers is extensive, but some artists have already pulled out.
The reason for this is Israel’s participation in a song competition. As it turns out, the actors do not support the war in the region and the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
In addition, for the first time in a long time, Eurovision tickets are still not sold. We are talking about the second semi-final, which will take place on May 9. This time, the representative of Israel, Eden Golan, will take the stage.
Ticket prices range from SEK 415 to SEK 3,795 (EUR 36-331) in different categories and for different shows.
