City's businesses gearing up for Eurovision party

Businesses across Liverpool are getting ready to be part of the city’s Eurovision party.

In two months time, around 100,000 extra visitors are expected to descend on Liverpool when it hosts the Eurovision Song Contest on behalf of Ukraine. The city has stepped in to host the major musical event after beating a number of other cities from across the UK for the honour.

Events across Liverpool will run from May 1 until May 14, the day after the show’s grand final at the M&S Bank Arena. A series of licensing applications have been made to Liverpool Council as venues across the city gear up to welcome crowds from far and wide.
