Although artists from the contest have toured together before, this will be the first time the organizing body EBU has put together a tour package. Ten of this year's finalists from the contest in Vienna in May are promised to be on the tour, along with "icons" from Eurovision history as well as "surprise artists" in each city.

The artists will be announced in the spring, the EBU said in a press release. The artists will sing their own songs and perform their own versions of classic Eurovision hits.

The tour kicks off in London on June 15 and arrives in Stockholm on July 2. The Eurovision Song Contest Live Tour also makes another stop in the Nordics, in Copenhagen on June 25.
