Man behind 'ideal church show' waits for Liverpool Eurovision decision

While Liverpool waits with bated breath to discover whether its bid to host the Eurovision Song Contest is successful, an exhibition organiser said the process was having an impact on other events due to take place at the same time.

Liverpool's odds of hosting next year's Eurovision Song Contest have shortened considerably after some five cities were taken out of the running earlier this week. Now just Glasgow and Liverpool are potential host locations for the 67th Eurovision Song Contest after the UK was given the chance to host the event for the ninth time. It was deemed unsafe to hold it in Ukraine, who were this year's winners.

But while this is good news for the city, other events due to be held at the same time in May 2023 are now in suspense while an overall winner is picked, with the announcement being made some time this autumn.
