Incredible winner

Yes we do 20-30 mil. is not a big amount + sponsorship covers some expenses.
According to my info we've already backed this up

So, is STB going to do the same with any of 'Aviant' plant hangars, as the danes did it to their shipyard?

Yes we do 20-30 mil. is not a big amount + sponsorship covers some expenses.
According to my info we've already backed this up, I mean the broadcaster discussed such possibility "what if we win"

Alright! I hope a big arena was chosen. I searched around a little for available arenas, you got plenty of arenas that left from the 2012 European Cup, but indoor arena's don't have much capacity. Palace of Sports is the best indoor arena and it only got around 10.000 available seats for concerts (I can imagine about -2000 because stage takes a big place)

 

[Sammy]

Congratulations to Ukraine! Great Artist, great song, fantastic performance. (Though I found the one in the semi even better.

 

[FilipFromSweden]

Interesting that Jamala came second in the semi.

Where can I find this info?

 

[LakZaNokte]

Congrats!

I'm not a fan of the song but I like that it won cause ESC always need new styles, new songs, it has to keep moving forward. This is beyond unorthodox that a song like this won and it's great.

I really hope this will encourage everyone to send original stuff to ESC and simply be brave and bold with their entries

 

[PashonFrut]

Congrats Ukraine! This song is my not thing but as I said earlier she has a great presence on stage. I'm very happy for Jamala

 

[MARCOMEN]

Congrats .

I'm not a big fan of this song tbh, but it was miles better than . So I'm really happy with the result.

 

[AlekS]

The same Swedish/Finnish etc. guys will be involved in ESC '17 production so I'm not even worried.
+ the company that produced Jamala's staging can help them. They've been doing EVERY Eurovision '16 trick for years

 

[Jacketh]

I can't say I'm a lover of the song (I can appreciate it - and it was better than Russia), but I'm mainly glad for Ukraine. They deserve it after the quality of acts they send.

Tik Tok and Gravity >>>

 

[musicfan]

It feels like a political win, but whatever I guess.....

 

[i anixi]

A work of art, one of the best winners ever. I'm speechless

 

[PashonFrut]

It's an excellent location to host Eurovision though. Tickets to Ukraine will be cheap ... hopefully accomodation too.

 

[popavapeur]

Congratulations Ukraine !

 

[Nicfedy]

A worthy winner. Pity though as I was hoping Jamala would return next year with an umptempo song. Could still happen in the future though.
