List of host cities of the Eurovision Song Contest
Host cities of Eurovision Song Contest in Europe
This page is a list of cities and venues that have hosted the Eurovision Song Contest, one or more times. Future venues are shown in italics. Since 1958, the host city has customarily been in the winner country of the previous year. There have been exceptions, however, when certain issues have prevented the winner to host the following year's contest. The host country then passed to the country that had come second, or a country that agreed to. Such events have been in 1960, 1963, 1972, 1974 and 1980.[1]
With 6 contests, Dublin is the city that has hosted the most contests. It is followed by London and Luxembourg (4 contests each), and Copenhagen and Stockholm (3 contests each).
Oslo Spektrum was the venue for the 1996 Contest.
The Helsinki Arena hosted the 2007 Contest.
The Belgrade Arena hosted the 2008 Contest.
The Wiener Stadthalle hosted the 2015 Contest.
