A press conference was held earlier today where DR informed us fans why Copenhagen was chosen. It appears that the broadcaster wants a more personal approach to the contest, as the postcards will feature the artists of each participating country and not Danish scenery - it should be a similar story to Malmo 2013...DR are following in the footsteps of SVT. The venue, B&W Hallerne, will seat a total of 10,000 people - doesn't sound much but Malmo Arena only held 11,000 people and that worked fine. I think it's a good idea to have a more intimate feeling, Malmo 2013 was great and I'm sure Copenhagen 2014 will have a similar feel to it. It's not known when we'll find out the host (or hosts) - I guess early 2014 like normal. A large amount of hotels are already booked - no date for when the tickets will be announced yet. "Join Us" is a simple yet effective slogan, although folk don't seem to like it... Denmark are inviting the whole of Europe to join them next May, even though the Czech Republic and Luxembourg have announced they won't return. Oh, it's going to be fun...
Such fun!!!
