Attendees said Liverpool’s showcasing of Ukrainian culture was ‘fantastic’ and showed ‘we are united’
The gates of the Eurovision Village at Pier Head in Liverpool are opened
There were cheers from fans dressed as Ukrainian acts Verka Serduchka and Kalush Orchestra and families in Union flag outfits as the stewards removed the barriers. Speaking about UK entry Mae Muller, who is performing last, Sean added: “I enjoy the entry. I think there have been some issues with the vocals.Mark, 29, also from Liverpool, wore a luminescent green outfit reminiscent of Kaarija’s own bolero-style jacket.
“It is even the case that they have brought a Ukrainian host in to help with Liverpool. I hope we have done Ukraine proud.”Nicki, 30, from Darlington, came to the fan zone dressed as Serduchka with the Ukrainian flag painted on her cheeks, and told PA she usually watched the grand final as part of a viewing party but had been “wanting to do this for years”.However, Nicki added: “I think it’s hard to compete with last year’s act. We kind of hit our peak last year.
After months of preparation, the 25-year-old singer from north London will finally perform her track, I Wrote A Song, for the international voting public. It comes after the European Broadcasting Union , which produces the event, said it had declined Mr Zelensky’s request to speak on Saturday over fears it could politicise the contest.
