A bit late notice. Tickets for Eurovision 2024 in Malmรถ go on sale at 9am tomorrow morning (28/11/23). Ticketmaster again, though Swedish Ticketmaster.
Luckily, I have one as used it for Ice Hockey last year.
Mixed feelings, should I try? When I went to Sweden last year, Malmรถ was my favourite city of the places I visited. So it should be a no-brainer. Healthwise, it might be more difficult, especially long walking distances
Fuck it, first thing is be awake at 9am tomorrow. Might as well try, will always be able to sell it back to TM resale later. Fingers crossed then.

Yep, I've not seen / heard any of the songs so far either.
Looking forward to the televisual feast of the year
.
Apparently, a Swiss rapper is among the favourites this year.
Not a Toblerone wrapper, I presume.

Is Sir Cliffs amongst the running this year? It would provide a perfect opportunity for him to get back into the limelight after that dodgy BBC business.

In Italy for the weekend, curious to see if Eurovision is a big thing in the pubs and bars there

Well, Olly Alexander is representing the UK if thats what you mean.. Didn't mind him in 'It's a Sin' but he was in 'Eastenders' the other day as himself and was very wooden and cheesy.
Only heard a bit of Years & Years and not overly impressed, bit as per going in blind here but heard mixed reports of the song.
As to my OP, quite easy to get tickets, got two at reasonable prices. But after some thought, sold them through resale and got full price. They'll be other times I'm sure.

Interesting as they won in 2021 and they are one of the big 5.
