Day 2 of Eurovision 2024 rehearsals kicks off with a diverse lineup of countries taking the stage! Today, get ready to be swept away by the musical talents of Iceland, Slovenia, Finland, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Australia, Portugal, and Luxembourg.
Iceland 🇮🇸 – We felt it coming, it’s Hera Bjork with Scared of Heists:
@eurovision All that glitters is indeed gold when it comes to Eurovision royalty @Hera Björk 🇮🇸 #Eurovision2024
Opening the rehearsal lineup today is Hera Björk, a Eurovision veteran from Iceland, known for her iconic pop performances. Sporting a dazzling, 6kg gold outfit with fringing, reminiscent of her previous stage attire but on a grander scale.
Hera exudes confidence and energy. Backed by five singers and surrounded by dynamic gold graphics and dancers’ silhouettes, her performance feels like a lively celebration.
Despite comparisons to Conor from Wild Youth, Hera’s glamorous ensemble steals the spotlight, setting a high bar for the day’s rehearsals with its fearless flair and infectious energy.
So, in the Semi-Final lineup, Germany is up next, but for today’s rehearsals, we’re jumping ahead to Slovenia’s Raiven. The Big 5 & Sweden will have their first rehearsals on Thursday, so Raiven takes the spotlight for now.
Slovenia 🇸🇮 – It’s Raiven with Veronika:

Raiven takes the stage in a sleek dark silver bodysuit, beginning her performance on the floor. Her movements synchronize with dynamic graphics on the LED floor, while five contemporary dancers in nude bodysuits join her, executing intricate choreography.
The overall vibe mirrors the intensity of her official music video, combining ethereal elements with dramatic flair. Raiven’s powerful vocals, especially hitting high notes towards the end, elevate the performance to a breathtaking climax, leaving a lasting impact.
Finland 🇫🇮 – Next up we have Windows95Man with No Rules
@eurovision Malmö Arena transforms into a denim dreamscape as @Windows95Man enters the chat 🇫🇮 #Eurovision2024
Fans who adored their victorious UMK show will rejoice as the Denim Egg Show arrives in Malmö, complete with its signature ‘barely within regulations’ nudity (a confirmed thong, hopefully secured more than just a few paperclips), miniature denim shorts, and Henri Piispanen’s impressive high notes.
Essentially a replica of their UMK staging, but with enhanced technical effects, including a cloudy LED backdrop reminiscent of a 90s screensaver.
We’ll return shortly with the first rehearsals for the rest of the countries, so stay tuned for more updates!
