EBU-tour turning out to be the best promotional campaign for Het Grote Songfestivalfeest 🥰

Would be funny if the Beeb had called Josh D. asking for a return because they’re out of options and he said that sounds good to me and then the Beeb did some research and said no wait actually it does not.

Hi @ebu.ch just a daily reminder to show you that the government you went to bed with to allow their propaganda run rampant on your Eurovison stage is still out there bombing kids! 💁🏻‍♀️

Too many good people are dying and not enough bad people.

Noooooo 😭

Stephen 😭🫶🏼 #TheTraitors

“If I were a faithful…” Oh RACHEL (none of the faithfuls will probably do anything with that slip-up) #thetraitors

I try to forget there’s a winner to be chosen that goes to the contest in May. Instead I will be seeing it as going to Finland to see friends, eat laskiaispulla, drink Lonkero, ride the train and enjoy a ridiculously diverse show with two accordeons, a violin and an all night afterparty endurance!

I just booked my flights for UMK. 🙃

I had “see the northern lights” on my 2026 bucketlist but I didn’t expect to be able to ✅ it so soon and see them FOR FREE with ZERO effort.

I just saw the northern lights for the first time ever and didn’t even have to leave the house to see them 😭💚

That’s how you write another song.

Within a week I have gone from “nah I will probably sell my UMK ticket because I can’t even seem to get excited about my fave national final” to “I’m close to booking those flights”.

Guys I can’t stop enjoying this one!

June 25 ultimate showdown in Copenhagen.

Need the tour to flop harder than the annual televote for Malta.

Will they invite the televote winner on tour since that’s the one most people want to see because it’s so popular, right? 💁🏻‍♀️

EBU absolutely fucking desperate to get “our” money and trying to take ownership of other people’s ideas and efforts (preparties, Het Grote Songfestivalfeest), what else is new.

In five minutes I went from wanting to buy Harriet’s books to wanting to burn them. #thetraitors

I was ready to yell “rooting for accordeon grandpa” until I googled and saw we share a birth year. 🫥

The only sell-out is your contest itself.

ORF having to dig deeper into their rolodex to find anyone relevant who’s still willing to participate in that 70th anniversary celebration in May 🥰

Forgot I’d registered for tickets last year (I still had some hope left back then) and they really say ‘no bags of ANY size allowed but you CAN give us more of your money and buy our branded pouch’. (I promise try to be less cynical and move on but it’s hard, ESC was almost everything to me)

Did Roland Weißmann receive the EBU Peace Price during the draw?

Semi final Allocation draw: ❌ Withdraw: 👏🏻 #ESC

I can’t focus on anything these days and my brain comes up with the most random thoughts that I need to get out of my system somehow, so here is a fun fact: in Dutch our literal translation for a vacuum cleaner is “dust sucker”.

Exactly three years ago today we were introduced to this legendary league. #UMK

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the band or artist. New Kids on the Block 😅 at the Rotterdam Ahoy, May ‘91 (exactly 30 years before ESC took place there).

Stroopwafel on hot tea for a few minutes so it’s soft and warm when you eat it, 10/10.

I am unable to make sense of everyone’s tactics and I don’t know if it’s because of me or them not being very clever. #TheTraitor

Multitasked this evening by keeping one eye on #TheTraitors and the other on my phone while shopping for a colourful cardigan.

Chaos! #TheTraitors

Misschien overbodige maar toch gratis tip voor degenen wiens auto buiten staat geparkeerd en deze pas op z’n vroegst morgen of overmorgen weer gebruikt: veeg ‘even’ de verse sneeuw van vandaag er af want morgen is dat één grote, haast niet los te bikken klomp vastgekoekt ijs geworden.

This is peak Netherlands at a standstill because of the snow.

6th snow day here 🇳🇱, many schools are closed, people work from home, public transport is disrupted, hundreds of flights cancelled, people on sleds and skis on the three slight slopes this country has. It’s all so annoying and adorable at the same time. 🥰

Also I think Sam is the Secret Traitor which I purely base on this shot that was used in the first two episodes, and it most likely means absolutely NOTHING but still, what’s the 19th letter of the alphabet and who is 34 years old? #TheTraitors

My sister is catching up on #TheTraitors (with subtitles, we’re Dutch) and she just sent me a voice memo saying that it took her three episodes to realise that Hugo’s profession is not someone who makes/serves coffee. 😭💖

35 broadcasters will participate but I bet you 100% the pieces of paper in the bowl will have countries’ names on them so which is it?

This is Ollie. He found a perfectly placed carrot snack on his walk. Simply can't believe his luck. 13/10 best day ever (TT: maxime_aries)

I’m convinced the bossy mom on tv is 100% Andorra’s 2005 Eurovision contestant this is amazing.

Watching a Dutch dating reality tv show and one of the participants’ parents who run a hotel in Andorra 🇦🇩 just showed up on tv and HOLD UP IS THIS THEIR ESC 2005 CONTESTANT

The opposite of the speed of sound is the ‘speed’ at which my wireless Apple Magic mouse charges.

Everything looked so magical and I took so many photos but this one has got to be my fave because it looks like palm trees in a snowscape.

Walking for hours in deep snow in our city park listening to Kuumaa 🥰 ❄️

I’ve been waiting all year for #TheTraitors to start, it’s finally time!!

Triggered.

Ready for the only Eurovision-broadcast live from Vienna I’ll be watching this year. 😌

I guess Claude didn’t make the list. 😔 #ESC250

The fact that I probably won’t be able to mute NDWR until 30 seconds into the song because I have never listened to it so I won’t recognise it. 😞

This was expected actually, the amount of hate it gets in the fandom. #ESC250
