Newcastle is interested in becoming a host city during Eurovision 2023 - however no bid has yet been announced.
On Monday, it was confirmed that the UK would host the Eurovision Song Contest next year. Ukraine won the 2022 contest in May, which usually means it would host the following year's event.
However the war-torn country is not able to commit to holding Eurovision 2023 due to the invasion by Russia. As Sam Ryder finished second in the contest, the UK will host the competition on behalf of Ukraine.
