It could still be announced later on I guess, but for the moment Eurovision.tv still has 9pm on their homepage.

Typical that half of the national final dates announced so far are all on the same day! laugh.gif

February 13th already set to be a 'Super Saturday' (not that I will be watching anything but MF/Maybe DMGP if I feel like it, but people like Ryan insist on watching every final and only every final so it is a thing).

Also, my Uni dissertation is due in on the day of the 2nd semi final so Eurovision this year for me will also be a quasi-Graduation party which on the one had is quite fun, but on the other, deeply terrifying.

That whole block from the 20th to the 28th of February is just ridiculous.

Bosnia & Herzegovina are apparently joining the party on Feb 27th, likewise Israel with their artist selection final on Feb 26th. Both not properly confirmed but very likely I believe.

Lithuania have decided to extend (EXTEND!) their selection by a further 2 weeks, now going head to head with Melodifestivalen on March 12th!

Israel have now confirmed it will be the following week on March 3rd, and the song may be selected at the same time.

Very excited that from this Friday onwards we will practically get a new entry every day! Only 1 or 2 days gap a couple of times but that's all, except for the gap between March 6th and 12th, but by then I guess we'll be getting music videos, revamps and the remainder of those yet to announce anything - for example Bulgaria is rumoured for March 10th. cheer.gif

Not only that but the six left to reveal can easily slot into the gaps in the schedule (I.e. If Delta is the Australian entry then they'll want a free run on the press coverage).

But the Dutch had already booked that slot!

Should've gone on the 1st!
