Born This Way 1,764 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I hope Ireland submit something really good again. Idk if I'll watch the individual song selection cuz I don't want to really like a song that doesn't get picked.

MelbHawker 6,583 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Kinda wish Croatia took it out this year, but the Swiss’s performance was fun! I’m guessing next years show will happen in either Geneva or Zurich. Eurovision stans better start saving up coin from now for that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwissMonster 28,785 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 So this is my ranking, from most likely to least likely, on which city/arena I think will host the contest 1. Hallenstadion, Zürich Capacity: 13.000 The most likely guess would be the Hallenstadion in Zürich. Its the most famous indoor Arena in Switzerland. All big World Tours go through there (Artrave, Future Nostalgia, etc.). Zürich is also the most likely give its size, hotel availability and the biggest international airport in Switzerland. A negative tho, the Hallenstadion doesn’t have a lot of space to accommodate delegations, staff and press. They would need to build tents nearby I guess. Not something that hasn’t been done before tho. Another negative tho is that it hosts an Ice Hockey club so don’t know how it will work with availability for such a long period. 2. Swiss Life Arena, Zürich Capacity: 12.000 The floor in this arena is a bit smaller. Thats why I put it on #2. There is more space to accommodate staff, press and deegations but this arena also has an ice hockey club. So lets see about availability. Would be a good alternative to the Hallenstadion 3. St. Jakobshalle, Basel Capacity: 12.400 This is my personal favorite since its my home city. The big pro for St. Jakobshalle is that it has 3 other large rooms to accommodate press, staff and delegations. Also Basel, as an Expo and culture city also has a lot of hotels. Also on a Eurovision perspective it would be great cause the city is right next to germany and france which truly embodies the spirit of europe. Also there is no club, so the arena should have no scheduling problems. A (small) negative would be that it has a smaller international airport, tho Zürich airport is just 50mins away. 4. Vaudoise Arena, Lausanne Capacity: 12.000 Vaudoise Arena in Lausanne could also host the contest. There is also enough space for delegations, press and staff. There is no international airport tho and I also fear not enough hotels. There is also a hockey club that could cause scheduling conflicts. 5. PostFinance Arena, Bern Capacity: 17.000 This is the largest indoor arena in Switzerland. Bern is also the capital city of Switzerland. There is also space for deegations, press and staff. Bern has an airport but it is very small and I doubt there are lot of cheap international flights going there. Also don’t know if the city has the hotel capacity. On top of that the arena has a large part of none numbered seating area which you can see on the picture below, don’t know if that would be a requirement for the EBU. There is also a Hockey Club. Also, as you can see on the picture, there is a lot of daylight. It will mostly be dark by then but it would need to happen at beginning of may. I just think there are too many cons for it happening there. 6. Palexpo, Geneva Capacity: TBA The most unlikely to me would be Geneva. They would either need to build an arena or use the Palexpo Halls. There is no other indoor arena in geneva that would fulfill the size minimum to host eurovision. I just don’t think they would choose Geneva over other cities with already existing and fitting arenas? The only reason could be cause of the eurovsion history the city has.
