Welcome delegates!








Saturday evening was time for the official reception of the Lord Mayor of Dusseldorf to welcome the delegations of all 43 participating countries.

For people who have never experienced this, it's an opportunity for all the artists & their teams to walk up the red carpet & be photographed by the thousands of press & interviwed by the many international broadcasters.

This is followed by the official opening of the Eurovision Song Contest by the Lord Mayor, & the Executive Supervisor of the contest, Mr Jon Ola Sand.

There is also music, dancing & of course a nice buffet & plenty drinks.
