TEL AVIV – Host City of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019

The host city of the 64th Eurovision Song Contest will be Tel Aviv, second largest city in Israel, the organizers of the festival, European Broadcasting Union EBU and national television of Israel KAN, announced.

The following Eurovision Song Contest will take place from 14 to 18 May in International congress center EXPO Tel Aviv. The Semi-Finals are scheduled for 14 and 16, and the Final for Saturday, 18 May.

Israel became a host by winning in Lisbon earlier this May with the song Toy. Although it is its 4th win, Israel will host the most popular European song contest for the third time. After Jerusalem in 1979 and 1999, the time has come for Tel Aviv.

There were three cities competing to be the Host city: Jerusalem, Eilat and, of course, Tel Aviv, which, in organizer's opinion, offered the best conditions for hosting the great spectacle next year.
