Eurovision Final Dazzles Europe Amid Protests and Politics
Basel, Switzerland: Spain captured the 2025 Eurovision crown with Lucía Pérez’s flamenco-pop anthem, edging Italy and Sweden before 180 million viewers. Outside the arena, pro-Palestinian marches and climate flash mobs highlighted Eurovision’s growing role as a stage for activism. Swiss police contained demonstrations, and the 3-hour broadcast ran flawlessly—with AR-heavy staging and an interval duet featuring Israeli and Ukrainian artists.
What this means for you:
Budget travelers: Basel hotel prices fall sharply after Eurovision—watch booking sites for post-event drops.
Culture buffs: Spain will host 2026; early volunteer sign-ups open within weeks for staging crews.
Activists: Large events often set protest guidelines months ahead—organize responsibly to avoid legal snags.
