There is no way that :ee: will win , we have no big arenas... our channel have no money to host the contest.. and i bet ebu knows it and jury's will do everything to pull :ee: down, but of course i want to see :ee: win.
I also will be happy if :al: or :sl: will win. I dont think that those 2 countries will have that big chance in future...

but my vote goes to :ge: . Georgia is good spot for ebu.

Where do you get your information? ERR doesn't have money? Really? So they went all professional with the music video because they have no interest in winning?

ERR doesn't have money and we don't have a huge venue. There's no question about that. However, that would not be a problem. We'd just host it in a smaller venue and use EU money to co-fund it.

We would use EU money like everybody else but ERR (and it would get a boost from the country too) will have the money that the hosting country would have to raise. If we did it in 2001 when we really were much poorer as a country then we can defo do it in 2016. Err would never pass up a chance if there's good enough song surfacing from Eesti Laul. Why the hell do we participate every year if they don't care?

What's that supposed to mean? Which country has used EU money to co-fund the hosting of Eurovision?? No poor EU member has even won it.

I checked Saku Suurhall, and it appears that it has the capacity of 10,000. That should be enough.

It's so small. I still think they would build a roof over Lilleküla arena.

I have no idea if that's true, but Wikipedia says (Lilleküla): "Capacity: 9,692 (10,300 with extra seats)" so it's pretty much the same. ;) Anyways, the venue is not a problem. I don't care, I just want Estonia to win and even if you had no venues at all, I would still love ESC to be organized under the sky, but in Estonia. :D

Sry, i thought you said EBU and I meant EBU.

Nah, I meant the money that comes from European Union structural funds. Like the 100k euros used to participate in ESC 2010, or the 300k euros spent to promote Robbie Williams' Tallinn concert in 2013. In both cases, the money was used to "promote Estonia overseas". Hosting ESC would fall into the same category.

That's for football matches, not concerts, which aren't really hosted there anyway.

I don't think the ability of hosting ESC next year should decide the winner.

A small country should win if they have a entry that Europe wants as winner. EBU should help the country to host or leave it to another country.

It's the same with "Sweden won 2012 then they shouldn't win 2015" crap. Esc is in dangerous if we are starting to think about past years or the future. It's all about 2015.

Should a crappy song win only because they haven't won in many years or/and because they can host it next. If this happenes then ESC's days are counted.

"It's capacity can also reach up to 25,000 for concerts." So the capacity would be higher.. But yes, it would be awesome if it was hosted at the A. Le Coq Arena (Lilleküla Stadium), I'm really not sure if they'd do it though.. Probably not.

Of course, every county should try to win. If they cannot manage to host it, then they pass the hosting duties to another country the following year.

That's right! I haven't seen that, I only looked at the table on the right, where it said 9,692. ;) Well, another proof that :ee: is able to host the contest.

Next year is probably the first year I'm going to travel to Eurovision, so I hope it will be in a cheap country if not in Sweden, because then I won't go (if it's not in Stockholm of course) :lol: But this year I will be happy if Estonia wins, Slovenia wins, Italy wins, we win... Pretty much if every country win :D That hasn't happened in a long time actually, I usually have some country that I root for extra much to host it.
