Eurovision fans who booked accommodation prior to ticket sales have shared an update on their May plans.
The Eurovision season unofficially kicks off when the host city is announced, with hundreds flocking to book their accommodation. The Liverpool contest saw people locked out of a stay after hotels hiked up their prices to eye-watering amounts, hoping to cash in on the event.
It didn't stop die-hard fans as many still booked well in advance despite tickets nowhere to be seen at the time. After today's madness, which saw checkouts for all nine shows stand at a minimum of 2000 people in the queue, we caught up with the fans who told us they booked their hotels months ago and whether or not they managed to find tickets.
