I managed to buy ticket for the Grand final in the last wave....so I will be in Arena for the final! YAAAAAAAS!

 

[Lindon]

the arena really looks small

If the stage is as good as it seems I really don't mind a small arena. All I want is good camera angles

Hatari send a LGBT support message to at their Party and people crow them!

The stage looks great but with a small venue like this I think a catwalk wasn't necessary. I don't mind a small venue but you have to find tricks to make it look bigger and that catwalk isn't really helping the arena.

I'm so bored by this Eurovision season.

The stage looks really cool. I agree with [MENTION=14282]popavapeur[/MENTION] though, the venue is really small so they shouldn't have gone with a catwalk

 

[Ezio]

The stage looks very 1988

i am not quite sure if i like it. i think the triangles will look cool. i wonder if all of them can move up and down. probably not.

I think it looks cool as fuck. Will be nice to have eurovision in a smaller venue after all these years. I think the smallest before this was Denmark maybe?

True, the venue in Kopenhagen has a 10'000 capacity, so just a bit bigger than the Tel Aviv Expo. I am surprised that Kopenhagen was that small, because the stage
looked bigger than other stages. Maybe because it was a simple design, which I liked.

I still don't get it why the producers think that having catwalks and b stages for Eurovision is such a good and brilliant idea.

The artists are basically just 3 minutes on stage and these catwalks/b stages are originally made for artists on tour to be closer to the audience, to interact with them and to have some "variety" in terms of performances. A Eurovision artist has no time to use it properly and like 2011, 2014, 2017, 2018, for example. It's just very few artist using them anyway (mostly sending a dancer or musician to the B stage or walking/running around for a few seconds). It's a waste of money and space, tbh.

the venue in Kopenhagen had a very high ceiling and the led in the back was put along the whole wall, thats why it looked bigger.

Yes, the high ceiling made the difference.
Hope Greece is not using a trampoline this year.
