Swedish Radio to Broadcast the First Asian Eurovision Song Contest Live

Sveriges Radio will broadcast the first Asian edition of the Eurovision Song Contest live, Kulturnytt reports. The final will take place in Bangkok on Saturday, November 14.

Actor and Eurovision expert Björn Kjellman will commentate on the broadcast alongside SR’s longtime Eurovision commentator Carolina Norén.

“It’s fun to hear what they’re doing. Are they imitating Eurovision, or are they completely different cultural expressions of their own?” Kjellman tells the radio station.

The format will not differ significantly from the one already established: the eleven competing countries will perform their entries, and the winner will be chosen in a major live final.
