The London Eurovision Party is the final stop on the road to Stockholm, giving the Eurovision 2016 acts one last chance to steal the spotlight ahead of the contest itself. As ever, wiwibloggs will be attending the show on April 17, and today we are extra excited. That’s because over the past week, three more acts have been revealed for this year’s edition. We’ve got Nina Kraljic and Michal Szpak joining the 2016 class already in attendance, and Greece’s 2012 diva Eleftheria Eleftheriou will sing-it-out as a special guest act.
Croatia’s Nina has quickly risen to become one of the favourites for this year’s competition. “Lighthouse” is still your favourite to win the first semi final of Eurovision 2016 and we’re really looking forward to seeing what she can deliver live. Nina is also set to perform at Eurovision in Concert earlier in April, but London may be the first time we get to see her after her “final” video of “Lighthouse” is revealed. A hint at staging could be on the cards.
As for Michal Szpak, the organisers certainly seem to have a coup here. It’s the first time Poland will be at the London party since their return to the contest in 2014. Whilst “Color of Your Life” may have been a shock winner in the national final, there’s no denying Michal’s vocal talents. Those in attendance will be in for a treat!
As for Eleftheria Eleftheriou, her passion for Eurovision has never seemed to fade. She was a star performer at the Vienna Euro Club, working the crowd with a great performance of “Aphrodisiac”. We’re sure that she’s going to bring the song back to us in London and will get all in attendance singing along too!
Of course, we hope that you’ve already got your ticket – as all the general admission tickets have now sold out! If you weren’t quick enough to snatch up a ticket to the hottest gig in London, then don’t despair too much. A final, very select number of tickets will be on sale one week before the show itself. Make sure you’re following London Eurovision on Twitter for more details when that’s announced.
Are you going to be in attendance in London and are you looking forward to seeing the three recently revealed acts? Let us know in the comments section below and make sure to check back for further news, as well as all our interviews and videos from the show on wiwi.tv!
I’m from Poland and I like our song, but I doubt that Michael will win.
His voice is amazing, but now no one pays attention to talent.
Micha? Szpak singing “Color of Your Life”,Micha? Szpak will represent Poland in the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest with his beautiful ballad Color Of Your Life…. Poland’s choice at Eurovision Song Contest 2016 .MY NUMBER ONE
Definitely winner of Eurovision is song “Color of Your Life”
oohhh i had no idea they were on sale!
Polish entry is sooooo good, girl!!!! I love Michal 🙂 and this song it’s so magical. I am right or what? 😛
I`ve heard rumours that Jamala (Ukraine) will participate in both parties in London and Amsterdam.
@nn I didn’t mean an exact dress of Polina or Aminata, I ment she needs a gown that will suit the song, but won’t be too weird or original. Knowing her style she might choose something waaaaaaay to quirky and it will turn people off. I would’ve preferred to see her in something like when she was singing “Euphoria” or “True colours” while participating on the Voice.
I wish I could go… ????
given her performances on the voice as evidence, she’ll get even more support- she’s great live!
Happy
I hope for decent and appropriate dress for NIna , she have her own style, she wili be look funny in Polina or Aminata dress from 2015 or Rona or Nina dress from 2012.
Ben Rafter
She have amazing voice, but luck of of charisma
@BenRafter I want to hear her live too, but mostly want to see her staging in Stockholm to judge about her chances. I saw few of her live performances on YouTube and she does have a good voice. The main concern now is wether she will be able to pull a spectacular performance on the big ESC stage. She needs an amazing dress (Polina Gagarina) / background (Aminata) or something else to capture viewer attention or her song won’t get her too far to be a decent competitor.
+Ben Rafter She’s even more amazing live, as you can see in her The Voice performances..
It will be very interesting to see Nina perform live because she could go from being one of the favourites to having no chance of qualifying.
