Liverpool is preparing to hold the biggest Eurovision Song Contest 2023. The focus of the show will be on delivering messages of peace in Ukraine.

12 installations of Soloveiko birds, which in Kiev are a symbol of song and happiness, were placed in the city, as the entire ground is being prepared for the 3 fiery nights.

But solidarity with the people who have been under military attack for more than a year, on May 13, on the day of the finals, a flashmob dance will be held, while the participants, the public and others will be invited to sing the song of the Beatles, which will to be performed at the Liverpool Museum.

It is intended that they will resonate around the world, where many people will join in support for the victims of the conflict.

“I’m a big fan of Eurovision, I also volunteer with the Red Cross, I’ve worked with Ukrainian refugees, so it all came together to make this project happen. Anyone, whether professional musicians or members of the public, can film the performance and upload it to social media channels, while the money will go to children in Ukraine,” said Valerie Bounds, one of the founders of the Help Ukraine Song project.

The 67th edition of Eurovision would normally be held in Ukraine, after the victory of the Kalush Orchestra with the song Stefania, but for security reasons it takes place in the United Kingdom.

The two semi-finals take place on May 9 and 11 and the final on May 13.

The three live shows will be presented by British singer Alesha Dixon, British actress Hannah Waddingham and Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina, with Irish TV presenter Graham Norton joining the finale.

A total of thirty-seven countries participate, including Albania.
