Eurovision is just around the corner and city preparations are well underway.
The 67th edition of the song-writing spectacle and associated events will kick off right here in Liverpool on Tuesday, May 9 until the grand final on Saturday, May 13. The contest will be held at Liverpool's M&S Bank Arena, with thousands of locals and tourists alike expected to attend the shows.
The Eurovision Song Contest is an incredibly popular annual event, held this time in Liverpool after the city beat off competitors including Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham to play host, due to ongoing conflict in winning country, Ukraine.
