The grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest is to be screened live in cinemas across the UK for the first time ever.
With fans from across the globe set to descend on Liverpool in a couple of months time as the UK hosts the 2023 edition of the world’s biggest song competition on behalf of last year’s winners Ukraine, those who weren’t lucky enough to secure tickets will instead by able to head to their nearest cinema to experience the action on the big screen.
Distributor CinemaLive has announced it will be broadcasting the Eurovision grand final show live in cinemas nationwide for the first time ever.
It means that Eurovision fans up and down the country who missed out on grabbing tickets to the final – which sold out in under 40 minutes after going on sale earlier this month – will be able to come together to celebrate what is set to be the “biggest, brightest, boldest music party of the year”.

Event organisers say the screenings will encourage singalongs and fancy dress.
“We’re delighted to be working with the BBC to bring Eurovision’s grand final live into cinemas across the UK for the first time ever,” said John Travers from CinemaLive.
“We want audiences to enjoy themselves, so get your fancy dress on, and come together to enjoy this historic occasion on the big screen.”
There are also film crews in attendance, who it’s believed are filming for the second instalment of her upcoming documentary, Molly-Mae: Behind It All.
She launched her brand Maebe last September, pitched as offering accessible luxury fashion.
Previous Maebe pop-ups have only taken place in London, despite Molly-Mae living in the north west.
The queues are still raging in Manchester for the pop-up, if anyone was planing to head down.

A designer dentist in Manchester is offering composite bond treatment with a huge saving this month.
Rüh Dental, hailed as one of the top dental surgeries in Manchester and one which counts popular celebs like Helen Flanagan and Molly-Mae Hague as their patients, is offering readers a healthy 10% off composite bonding treatment this month.
The boutique surgery leads the way in creating a perfect smile that both stands out in a crowd but is effortlessly natural.
The whole process can be done in as little as 60 minutes too, depending on how much work you need.
If composite bonding is something you’re new to, it’s a straightforward, smile-perfecting procedure that is designed to give natural results and improve your grin, all whilst preserving the patient’s own teeth.
We caught up with leading dentist Dr Billal Arshad from Rüh, who is an expert in his field and is famed for his dental diligence and artistic flair.
He tells us “Composite bonding is a simple but effective treatment where we sculpt composite onto the teeth to make them look aesthetically pleasing.
“It’s a painless procedure that gives a natural look and lasts up to seven years without damaging the patient’s own teeth.”
You can find more about composite bonding from our Q&A session with Dr Arshad here.
