The cost of staging the Eurovision Song Contest for Liverpool Council has been confirmed.
In May 2023, representatives from 37 countries across Europe will descend on the city to compete for the biggest musical prize on the continent. In October, Liverpool was selected to host the competition in place of Ukraine, seeing off a bid from Glasgow in the final two.
Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to attend the nine shows that will take place in the M&S Bank Arena next May. Now, it has been confirmed how much the city will spend bringing the musical extravaganza to the dock.
