#EurovisionAgain - Eurovision Song Contest 2016 - Grand Final - Full Show
Description
Welcome to another EurovisionAgain Saturday night! Tonight, we will be travelling to Stockholm for the Eurovision Song Contest 2016! You can tweet along with the show using #EurovisionAgain .
The Eurovision Song Contest 2016 was held in the capital of Sweden, Stockholm. It was the third time that Stockholm hosted the contest and the second time that it was held in the Globe Arena. The right to host the contest came when Måns Zelmerlöw brought home the trophy with his song Heroes from Vienna in 2015. Australia returned to the Eurovision Song Contest.
Come Together
The slogan for the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest was Come Together. The theme artwork, inspired by the dandelion, symbolised the power of resistance and resilience but also of regeneration – when the seeds fly away from the dandelion new life is created where they touch down.
The Grand Final
26 countries competed in the Grand Final of the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest. 10 qualifiers from each of the Semi-Finals, the so-called Big Five as well as hosts Sweden all took to the stage. 2016 saw the biggest change to the voting sequence since 1975. The public and jury votes were presented separately meaning that there was double the amount of points available.
