Very interesting, i suspected something similar, but do you have any sources for this?

That's from my experience of insurance industry.

They will have to fight for insurance claims in the first place. There should be some coverage for cancellation due to terror threats, but not sure if force majeure is perfectly covered. In any case, they can't afford spoiling their financial stake by having a remote song contest and cashing in from the event, because then there is no loss and upfront investments are in vain on behalf of the producers.

SVT has just announced through the MF-app that they will have a vote for Eurovision 2020!
On the 9th of may, they will bring back a version of "Inför ESC", where all songs will be played and then people will vote for their faves through the app. On the 14th of may, 25 songs will have qualified for a live show where people will vote again and the winner will be announced on the night! On Saturday the 16th, they will show that the dutch broadcasters and EBU is doing.

I am in shock to see that SVT cares about ESC this way, but happy they made this decision! :)

Wonderful - and precisely what the EBU should have done in the first place.

Slayko is making the most out of it in the Eurovision Home Concert. Slaying it! :)
Ryan did a fine cover of "Think About Things".

If that would have any impact on the way EBU is mishandling all of this and realizes that we all not only want but NEED a competition to numb our senses in this dark reality I would love SVT again!

I am just watching the pre-party ... Belarus is really at the bottom of my list, but the accoustic version sounded really good! And now Ana! :love:
