Eurovision in Concert — the glitziest and most celebrated pre-Eurovision event — just got even better. Today its organizers confirmed via Twitter that Australia’s Eurovision 2015 singer Guy Sebastian will make the trip to Amsterdam to perform in the renowned Melkweg concert venue on April 18.

Guy Sebastian in Europe
It’s further proof that Australia is in it to win it. Given the distance to Australia, we suspect he’ll stick around for other preview events including the London Eurovision Party.

I love Guy. I have all his albums… and I’ve got my tickets for Eurovision in concert so I’m made up!
Won’t be going to see Guy & I’m from Amsterdam…..would of preferred to see Dami at Concert, saw her with John Legend in Australia & she is magnificent.
