Veranstaltungsdetails
The statutes of the Eurovision Song Contest state:
"The ESC is a non-political event. All participating broadcasters, including the host broadcaster, shall ensure that all necessary steps are taken within their respective delegations and teams to ensure that the ESC is in no way politicized and/or instrumentalized."
But is the ESC really apolitical? The demonstrations surrounding Israel's participation last year in Malmö, the event as a platform for diversity and the voting behavior of the individual countries are just some of the points that will be addressed in this panel discussion.
On stage, "Dr. Eurovision" Irving Wolther, Malte Brändlin (who made it to the final of the German preliminary round with his band "The Great Leslie") as well as Michael Behr (President of OGAE Germany e. V.) and other experts, including a representative of the queer community, will take part in the discussion.
Moderation: Matthias Zeller
