Liverpool will enjoy a 'once in a lifetime' experience when it hosts the Eurovision Song Contest in May next year.
There was much surprise and delight among people across the city when it was confirmed Liverpool won the bid to host the Eurovision Song Contest with it being described as a one off experience for many. However, there has been disappointment due to soaring hotel prices.
Liverpool triumphed over Glasgow at the final stage but many tourists feel they won't could stand a chance at getting a ticket never mind an overly priced hotel room. Elaine Joinson, 65, from Lancashire said: “I was hoping it would come to Liverpool, I am very pleased it has. I would love to come and see it but the hotels are going to be too expensive so it is going to be a day trip I think for me.”
