Eurovision Song Contest 2023 is soon to be announced – and the shortlisted Liverpool has already put plans into motion if it clinches the title.According to the Liverpool Echo, the city council is working on plans for a full cultural programme that would celebrate UK music, Eurovision and Ukrainian culture.
This year’s contest was won by the Ukrainian entrants Kalush Orchestra but due to the war, runners-up (the UK) are hosting the 2023 edition on Ukraine’s behalf.If Liverpool is chosen over Glasgow, organisers will put on an artist exchange and co-production between Ukrainian and Liverpool-based artists.Working specifically with Liverpool’s sister city Odesa and its creative community, Liverpool aims to “deliver an extraordinary celebration of Ukrainian culture” that will highlight Odesa as well as create a major community outreach programme across the city.
The programme would begin at Easter and run through to Eurovision itself on May 10, 2023.Among the proposals is a boost to the city’s street art, with the council saying that it will work with a range of Ukrainian street artists alongside iconic British street art names to create a takeover of the city.Liverpool will also work with Ukrainian designers to create the designs and outfits for its event volunteers and other key delegates.
