Is that the Top Secret Interval Act I see there? Come on! We all knew Chamilla chose the weekend of the 6th for the Coronation so they could party all the way through to the following Saturday at Eurovision!
Okay I’m incredibly proud of that stage!!!

I get some British Got Talent vibes from the stage and venue overall but it looks like a very good stage to give songs individualism and unique stage performance. The size could be a bit small but it blended so well on TVs in Vienna so it is not necessarily a bad thing.

The stage certainly has potential. Just glad that this time we have nothing that blocks the LED screen.

Or rather, the moving component of the LED screens move quicker than a glacier.

The stage looks tiny? Almost looks like some National Finals' stage. Hopefully there won't be any pan-out shots.
I presume the smaller circle stage in front will be surrounded by the audience?

Bay bear, this stage looks bay sick. And the sound cloud reminded me of UEFA Eurosoccer….

Stage is too small, it doesn't look like a stage for a show that's going to have 200 million people around the world watching.
However when Israel hosted in 2019, the place was ridiculously small, and yet I thought it was one of the best Eurovision in recent years.

The arena is small but camera angles will make it look bigger just look at the 2019 venue

For me the stage is fine.
I don't have any problem if it looks or is small. Big stages aren't functional at all.
You need big stagings to fill huge stages and not all the songs need complex scenographies.
The stage doest have anything exceptional but it has everything to make us enjoy this ESC.
Some people are too young and have forgotten the real spirit of ESC. This year's slogan remembers it to us. United by Music, no matter if this music is sounded in a huge arena or an underground metro station

I like the stage. Feels like they intentionally made a narrower main stage and a big secondary stage to make the performers move forward.
Looks good and I like the colours used for the idle graphics. Only nitpick (super unimportant) but the stair rails to the catwalk look distracting but #SafetyFirst
