[vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text]In Rotterdam we are counting down till the Eurovision Song Contest 2021. Although in an adapted form, we are looking forward to celebrate this 65th edition together! From now on, Rotterdam will be the center of creativity, innovation and connection and we cannot wait to show our city to the rest of the world. The festival feeling will flow through our streets and we will live towards this amazing event together. Are you ready? Because Rotterdam is ready to open up!<\/p>\n

To get into the Eurovision atmosphere, we will officially kick off the event today! At the brand new Rotterdam icon Depot Boijmans van Beuningen, there will be a clock that counts down. The one and only Duncan Laurence, various presenters, international and local celebrities will personally make sure the clock keeps ticking. In that way, we can count down to the grand finale on the 22nd of May together!<\/p>\n

Drag queens Megan Schoonbrood and Ma’Ma Queen (also known from Drag Race Holland) are ready. Keep an eye on the clock, because the next 100 days will guarantee a surprising amount of fun. Watch the video and absorb the Eurovision feeling, because in 100 days it will be our time to shine!<\/p>\n
