The rainbow flags are already out, a 30 meter long catwalk is being built and the stage is starting to take shape: preparations for the ‘Eurovision street party’ on Reguliersdwarsstraat are in full swing. After two years, the Eurovision Song Contest will be celebrated in a big way here from Thursday.
The shows in Turin are broadcast on big screens and there is all kinds of ‘Eurovision entertainment.’ “Because a lot of people from the queer community, from the rainbow family as I always say it myself, are a real fan of the Eurovision song contest and have been living for it for months, so it is in that regard spot on for the target group. It’s a chance for us to embrace our audience again.”
To cope with the crowds, the street is closed on both sides. You can only enter the Reguliers with a ticket. The party starts on Thursday at 4 pm and lasts until the final of the Eurovision Song Contest.
