I remember the excitement. It all happened back in May 2021. The Eurovision came to my hometown of Rotterdam. In fact, it took place inside Ahoy complex. Not far away from where I live in Rotterdam South.
"After Duncan Laurence’s victory in Tel Aviv in 2019, the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest was due to take place in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, however, the event was cancelled in March 2020 due to the emerging COVID-19 crisis. Almost immediately preparations began to ensure that a 2021 Contest would go ahead." www.EuroVision.tv
I think Rotterdam did such an incredibly great job hosting the Eurovision Song Contest 2021. Even though, we were in the middle of a Pandemic, the event brought new energy, people and hope into Rotterdam, the Netherlands and around the world.
