The 59th edition of Europe’s Favourite TV Show truly shifts a gear tomorrow (28th of April) as it’ll be time for the first 10 acts of Semi-Final one to take to the stage and deliver their first impressions. Will they be nervous? Will everything work?! Only time will tell – all will be answered tomorrow from 9.30am.
I arrived in Copenhagen on Friday afternoon. Many said that it was extremely early and I myself thought that I was a tad eager (I even got to Bristol airport 3 hours early.. woops!). I soon realized that I did the right thing. Never has the slogan #JoinUs been more ironic.
After finding the location (thanks to the very handy Transport information on eurovision.tv’s website) it was trying to find my way around Refshaleøen that proved difficult! The crew entrance turned into everyone’s entrance which turned into the press entrance.. but anyway, it’s the 27th of April 2014, it’s 7pm and everything ran smoothly!.. for now.
Tomorrow sees the first 10 acts from semi-final one rehearsing in the arena. From Aram to Axel, and from Tanja to the Tolmachevy Sisters.. it’s going to be hectic, it’s going to busy, but most of all, and in true Eurovision fashion, it’s going to be ‘Glorious’.
#JoinUs or #JoinMe for the low-down on who was good and who was not-so-good in my post tomorrow.

Poor you being at Bristol Airport three hours early – hope you had a good book to read! Looking forward to your reports from Copenhagen…
Thanks Martin!
