The stage designer Julio Himede, who has worked on huge events, for example the GRAMMY Awards, has based this stage design on the principles of “togetherness, celebration and community”.
Julio Himede stated that:
“The architecture takes inspiration from a wide hug, opening its arms to Ukraine, the show’s performers and guests from across the world. I focused on the cultural aspects and similarities between Ukraine, the UK and specifically Liverpool. From music, dance and art to architecture and poetry.”
The designer also added that “[i]t is our duty as designers to enhance performances through a compelling visual landscape, while capturing the heart and soul of the Eurovision Song Contest.”
