Rai have revealed Carolina Di Domenico and Ema Stokholma as their commentary team for the semi-finals of Eurovision 2018.
Carolina Di Domenico and Ema Stokholma will be joining each other as the commentators for Italy during the semi-finals of the Eurovision Song Contest 2018. The two television presenters are new to the commentary booth and replace Andrea Delogu and Diego Passoni who commentated on the semi-finals in Kyiv last month.
Rai had already confirmed that both Carolina Di Domenico and Ema Stokholma would provide commentary for the final via Rai Radio 2. According to Eurofestival News it is unlikely that Rai Radio 2 will be providing coverage of the semi-finals as the station also broadcasts The Voice, which will be taking place at the same time.
