The Grand Final of the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest will be shown in cinemas across the UK.
The epic final will be broadcast live from BBC One and streamed into venues across the country, allowing fans to come together and be ‘united by music’, sharing in the biggest, brightest and boldest music party of the year.
John Travers of CinemaLive, distributors of the event in cinemas said: “We’re delighted to be working with the BBC to bring Eurovision’s Grand Final live into cinemas across the UK for the second year in a row.
“We want audiences to enjoy themselves, come along in groups, get your fancy dress on, and come together to enjoy this incredible occasion on the big screen!”
Taking place in Malmö, Sweden, following Loreen’s historic victory in 2023 with Tattoo, the show will be presented in over 100 cinemas nationwide with tickets on sale from 10am BST on Friday (April 5) here.
The Eurovision Song Contest Grand Final takes place on May 11, following Semi-Finals on May 7 and 9, with bosses reportedly planning to invite stars from the Contest’s history back to the stage to celebrate five decades since ABBA’s victory.
“It is 50 years since ABBA won in Brighton with Waterloo and they are going to be celebrated big time when the contest returns to Sweden,” insiders reveal.
“The group have made it clear they have no interest in performing again but ABBA’s music will be a major part of the event with a chunk of time put aside for a tribute after all the acts have performed.
“Bringing part of their ABBA Voyage show to Sweden is really complex because the tech is very expensive and complicated, which is why they had to build an arena for it in East London.
“Organisers are racing to try and make it possible but otherwise, a selection of stars, likely all from Sweden, will be singing ABBA’s music instead.
“It will be a memorable moment.”
Loreen is expected to be among the performers on the night in Malmö, with others to be announced.
