#BIRTHDAY: Lena from Germany is 29 today The 2020 Eurovision season is over. Or at least would have been over, had it happened on Saturday. But birthdays go on. For some birthday at this time of year, we might still have been in a Eurovision season. Is it […]
As the dust settles on the Eurovision that never was, many of you out there know that we here at Eurovision Ireland held our own contest of sorts via Facebook Live and that your votes declared Lithuania the winner of Eurovision 2020. But if we know Eurovision fans, […]
BIRTHDAY: Merethe Trøan from Norway is 50 today Do you remember the old days? When the contest was all done and dusted in one night, and none of these new Europeans were able to do their thing? Well 1992 was probably the last ‘old’ contest as we know […]
Your votes have been counted and verified. It’s time to crown your winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2020! We revealed Eurovision Ireland’s winner in a live Facebook broadcast earlier this evening. Did you miss it? Never mind, here it is again! If you want to have a […]
