Thread to discuss the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest which will be hosted in Rotterdam a year later than planned of course as ESC 2020 was cancelled due to COVID - 19 Pandemic.
Contest Dates;
Semi Final 1: Tuesday 18 May 2021
Semi Final 2: Thursday 20 May 2021
Final: Saturday 22 May 2021
Following yesterday's announcement that Lesley Roy will represent Ireland but with a different song, I thought it would be a suitable time to start the ESC 2021 thread.

Many other countries will be also be sending their 2020 artists with different songs. There are several contingency plans in place to ensure the contest go ahead one way or another. Hopefully with the vaccine being rolled out in January across Europe that all Artists, Delegations and Production Crew can be vaccinated before May and there can be an audience in Rotterdam.
