The history of the Eurovision Song Contest
My journey with the Eurovision Song Contest started in 2006 when I saw lordi win without knowing what it was that I had just watched. The 2010 contest was the 1st Eurovision that I watched the whole thing including the semis and the grand final. It has become a key event that I watch every year without fail and 2014 was when I started to analyse all the songs and staging. I took this to another level in 2015 by finding a live stream on YouTube by ESCxtra. This live stream came from inside the press centre of Eurovision, and I was able to catch the second round of rehearsals.
2016 was another turning point in my Eurovision journey was adding the pre-parties on top of analysing the songs, so this meant I kept up with all parts that came with Eurovision. This was the year I attended my first Eurovision party here in Australia, it was hosted by friends and the important parts of the experience were dressing up in costumes and joining in drinking games. 2019 was the 1st year that I hosted the annual 3-night Eurovision experience and the only year I haven’t hosted the viewing party was 2020 because Eurovision was cancelled.
I try to come up with 3 costumes each year, 1 for each night of the viewing party but I am not afraid of repeating a costume if I need to. I reused my France costume from the grand final of 2018 for the OGAE Australia Melbourne 2022 Eurovision Preview Party.
