It’s the second most watched TV program in the world. Bigger than the Super Bowl. Second only to the World Cup final. A show that in some countries captures 90 percent of the TV viewing audience. A competitive event between countries where each country is striving for the world championship — in a song contest.
It’s the Eurovision Song Contest. Almost all countries in Europe sends an act. Each act is 3 minutes long (or less) and can be of any genre, any type of stage presentation, any type of music. The music is sung live with a limit of six people on the stage.
