It appears from the documentary that the final of the visas is either on May 11 or 18. The Viusarena must be reserved for Eurovision for seven or eight weeks.
It is not enough that the host city has a big arena, because in addition to the arena, there must also be a Press Center for 1,200 journalists and there must be 3,500 hotel rooms in the city or the surrounding area.
One of the requirements is also that a night club must be found in the city for Euroclub and this night club must be open every day until three in the morning.
The Tele 2 arena in Stockholm is one of the possible visa arenas. PDO
For Finnish visa tourists, the requirements for hotels must be pleasing, i.e. they must keep the prices fixed for the duration of the visas and the prices must not be varied. Visa tourists are also subject to public transport requirements, i.e. there must be good access to the visa arena.
Regarding taxis, it is mentioned that taxis with the Eurovision stamp must keep their prices fixed.
Eurovision director of SVT Ebba Adielsson tells Aftonbladet that the host city of the visas will be decided at the beginning of July.
