Stage Design

[macmillanandwife]

BigVis would be a great Dutch design firm. Also doing a stage with a lot of moving parts would actually pay homage to set designer Roland de Groot who designed the stages for ESC 1970, 1976, 1980, and 1984. He was well known for using many moving parts (and using many stage hands to move those parts!)

It shouldn't be that difficult to have a contemporary version of these designs, and would be pretty awesome if done right!

I would also like a circular stage as well. It doesn't have to be as excessive as 2018 with its 2 catwalks and bridges, but would be a nice contrast to the moving LED strips.

Any host city it is, NPO could probably use stage design from BigVis, a local design firm in Netherlands. They usually design stages for dance music festivals, which is perfect for Eurovision.

Eurovision needs a reform. Eurovision needs Arabella Kiesbauer forever!

Arabella is not a robot.

Arabella is love. Arabella is life.

I honestly thought all those were automated, thanks so much for this info!

Arabella
I will never understand the hate towards the austrian hosts, all of them were good.

Quick reminder, only hosts:

Have you guys seen the EMA 2019 stage? The proportion of the stage to the set was amazing, but I do feel the design looked pretty uncharacteristic, somehow also felt like a bigger Operacion Triunfo.
