Balgarianovinite.com Either Burgas (on the Black Sea) or the capital Sofia will host the 71st Eurovision Song Contest in 2027, www.eurovision.com announced on Monday, citing the Bulgarian National Television (BNT).
“Following the completion of the first stage of the Host City selection process, which included an assessment of the technical specifications of the proposed venue, its compliance with the requirements of the European Broadcasting Union and the production standards of the Eurovision Song Contest, it’s been announced that the municipalities of Plovdiv and Varna have not advanced to the next round. The bids submitted by both Burgas and Sofia have progressed to the next stage of the process,” the website said.
A decision is expected to be made soon and officially announced in the coming weeks.
Martin Green CBE, Director of the Eurovision Song Contest, expressed gratitude to the two cities we’ve lost from the selection process: “Thank you to Plovdiv and Varna for their passion for the Eurovision Song Contest and interest in hosting this event that unites millions of people around the world with the power of music. Such intense competition between cities underscores the significant economic and social benefits of hosting. Both bids demonstrated just how widespread the support for next year’s event is across Bulgaria and we hope both cities will be part of the nationwide celebrations next May.”
BNT Director General Milena Milotinova has thanked the municipal teams for their commitment and preparation in developing and presenting their cities’ bids to host the Eurovision Song Contest 2027: “We would like to emphasize that this decision is based solely on the assessment of the pre-established technical and infrastructure criteria, which were applied equally to all candidates. It does not call into question the undeniable strengths of your cities or their well-established traditions in music, culture, and international festivals. This also creates opportunities for their participation in the programme of accompanying events.”
