5 Things to Watch Out for at Eurovision 2024, According to the Song Contest’s Executive Supervisor


Eurovision 2024: Five things to watch out for, per Song Contest executive supervisor Martin Österdahl.

To find out what to watch for in the 2024 contest airing next week, Billboard talked to Österdahl via Zoom to get a preview of this year’s 68th edition of the popular pan-European event. We introduced the rest-of-the-world vote last year and we’re increasing the window for that to be 24 hours before the show, so that people in Asia and in South America don’t have to sit up and watch this live on Central European Time. When I started working on Eurovision a long time ago, we used to refer to the classics like Celine Dion and ABBA when it came to who had the international global hits from this show, but that’s not the case anymore.
