One of the joys of Eurovision and being at the contest is the sheer number of celebrations that take place across the host city during the contest’s two weeks. On Thursday night, one of the most glamorous parties took place as Montenegro’s delegation and tourist board held a celebration for Slavko Kalezić and invited the other Balkan countries’ artists along for the ride!
Slavko, Jana Burčeska (Macedonia), Tijana Bogićević (Serbia), Jacques Houdek (Croatia), Lindita Halimi (Albania) and Omar Naber (Slovenia) were all at the gala, held in Kyiv’s Opera Hotel, to perform their Eurovision entries and meet with delegates, officials and selected press. Alyosha (Belarus 2013) was a special guest performer at the show.
