THE NETHERLANDS – The Eurovision Song Contest 2020 will be the 65th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. The contest is set to be held in May 2020, in the Netherlands, following the country’s victory at the 2019 contest in Tel Aviv, Israel, with the song “Arcade” performed by Duncan Laurence.

It would be the fifth time that the Netherlands hosts the contest, the last edition having been the 1980 contest, and the first Eurovision event to be hosted in the country since the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012.

Twenty-seven countries have confirmed their intentions to participate in the contest, including Ukraine, which would return after it withdrew from the 2019 contest over disputes with its artists regarding the terms of the contract required for participation.

Rotterdam will host the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest at the Rotterdam Ahoy, a candidacy supported by the province of South Holland and the cities of Dordrecht and The Hague; The venue previously hosted the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2007.

Rotterdam Ahoy, in its current form, was built in 1970. The complex’s striking design won various national and international awards for its special steel structures. The design of the venue took inspiration from the water, with the building laid out like a ship.

The first event to be held there was the Femina family exhibition. Since then, Ahoy has been expanded on a number of occasions, and was renovated and refurbished in 1998 to designs by the architectural firm Benthem Crouwel which created today’s multifunctional venue.

That concert where you and your love dance to ‘your tune’. That epic day, when your team wins the final. That’s Rotterdam Ahoy.
