About

Go behind the sequins of the world’s largest live music event and discover how the magic really happens.

For 70 years, the Eurovision Song Contest has been at the cutting edge of the biggest innovations in broadcasting, from colour television to LED technology and digital staging.

This brand-new exhibition explores the science behind the spectacle, with stories from the performers, technicians and fans that have been at the heart of the Contest for the past seven decades.

Setting the Stage: 70 Years of the Eurovision Song Contest is part of a wider programme of events and activities taking place at the museum throughout the year which bring to life themes of performance, stagecraft, and careers in broadcasting.
