The Eurovision Song Contest 2022 is set to be the 66th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. It will take place in Turin, Italy, following the country's victory at the 2021 contest with the song "Zitti e buoni" by Måneskin. This will be the third time that Italy has hosted the contest (having previously hosted the 1965 and 1991 contests in Naples and Rome, respectively), as well as the first EBU event to be held in the country since the last edition of Jeux Sans Frontières in 1999.

Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Radiotelevisione italiana (RAI), the contest will be held at the Pala Alpitour, and will consist of two semi-finals on 10 and 12 May, and the final on 14 May 2022.[1]

Location

As is tradition, Italy received the right to host the Eurovision Song Contest after the country won the previous edition, held in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

Preparations for the 2022 contest began on 23 May 2021, immediately after the victory. Martin Österdahl, the executive supervisor of the contest on behalf of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), handed RAI, the Italian participating broadcaster, a stack of documents and a USB drive with tools to begin the work needed to host the next contest.[2]

Bidding phase

Between 23 and 28 May 2021, many cities across Italy expressed interest in hosting the contest. Representatives from the cities of Bologna, Milan, Pesaro, Naples and Turin voiced their interest,[3][4][5] as well as the Mayor of Reggio Emilia, Luca Vecchi, who hoped to host the contest in the new RCF Arena, the largest open-air arena in Europe with a capacity of 100,000 spectators.[6] The mayors of Rome, Rimini and Florence soon after also expressed interest in hosting the contest[7][8][9] and were joined by Sanremo, Verona and Bari.[9][10][11] Marco Di Maio [it], member of the Italian Chamber of Deputies, also suggested that if Rimini were to host the contest, it should be a co-production with San Marino RTV.[12]

On 7 July 2021, Italian host broadcaster RAI and the EBU launched the bidding process and published a list of criteria and requirements for the host city and venue:[13][14]

  • The venue must be available for at least 6 weeks before the contest and one week after the conclusion of the contest;
  • The venue must be indoors with air-conditioning, have a well defined perimeter and an audience capacity in the main hall of around 8,000 – 10,000 during the event;
  • The venue must have a main hall with the capacity to house the set and all other requirements needed to produce a high level broadcast production and have ample space within easy access of the main hall to support additional production needs, such as: a press centre, delegation spaces, dressing rooms, artist facilities, staff facilities, hospitality, audience facilities, etc.;
  • The host city must have an international airport no more than 90 minutes from the city;
  • The host city must have over 2,000 hotel rooms in the area close to the event.

In the first phase of this process, any interested cities were to present their bid through certified email by 12 July 2021, after which RAI and the EBU would proceed to send all of them a bid book with more detailed requirements for the cities to submit their plans for review.[15]

On 9 July 2021, the city of Turin officially announced its bid.[16] On the same day, the city of Pesaro did the same, proposing the Vitrifrigo Arena as a possible venue to host the event.[17] They were followed by Bologna and Jesolo on 12 July,[18][19] and Rimini and Bertinoro (jointly with Forlì and Cesena) on 13 July.[20][21] On 13 July 2021, RAI announced that 17 cities had submitted their bid for hosting the contest and would be provided the following day with the bid books. They had until 4 August 2021 to draft and submit their detailed plans, which 11 cities did.[22] On 24 August 2021, it was reported that Bologna, Milan, Pesaro, Rimini and Turin would be the cities left in the running to host the contest.[23]

The choice among them was meant to be announced by the end of August;[24][25] however, this did not happen, and in mid-September Stefano Coletta [it], director of Rai 1, stated that the selection was behind time to ensure "transparency and precision".[26]

On 8 October 2021, the EBU and RAI announced Turin as the host city, with the Pala Alpitour as the chosen venue for the 2022 contest.[27][28]

Each delegation could still choose to use backing singers, whether on or off stage, or a combination of live and recorded backing vocals. All lead vocals performing the melody of the song must still be live, according to the rules.[59][60]

Further information: List of countries in the Eurovision Song Contest

Eligibility for potential participation in the Eurovision Song Contest requires a national broadcaster with active EBU membership that would be able to broadcast the contest via the Eurovision network. The EBU has issued invitations of participation in the contest to all active members. Associate member Australia does not need an invitation for the 2022 contest, as it had previously been granted permission to participate at least until 2023.[107]

Austria, Cyprus, Moldova, North Macedonia, Romania, Russia and the United Kingdom all participated in 2021 but have not yet released information regarding their 2022 participation.

Active EBU members

  •  Andorra – On 1 August 2020, during an interview on Eurovision fansite Wiwibloggs' podcast, the 2009 Andorran representative Susanne Georgi revealed that she had held a meeting with Prime Minister of Andorra Xavier Espot Zamora, during which they called for the country to make a return in 2022, having not returned for the previous year's contest due to the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic.[108] However, on 19 June 2021, the Andorran broadcaster RTVA stated that the principality would not return in 2022.[109] Andorra last took part in 2009.
  •  Armenia – On 23 June 2021, David Tserunyan, head of delegation for Armenia in the contest, expressed in a Facebook post his satisfaction upon being re-elected to the Eurovision Song Contest Reference Group, and anticipated "great news" would be revealed soon, reportedly hinting at a possible return of the country to the competition.[110] However, the Public Television Company of Armenia (AMPTV) is yet to make a public announcement about its participation in 2022. Armenia last took part in 2019, though it was meant to compete in the cancelled edition of 2020 and in that of 2021, before withdrawing at a late stage.
  •  Bosnia and Herzegovina – In June 2021, Bosnian broadcaster Radio and Television of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BHRT) stated that it was unlikely that the country would return to the contest in the upcoming years, unless sufficient funding to do so is secured.[111] Bosnia and Herzegovina last took part in 2016.
  •  Cyprus – On 24 September 2021, it was announced the Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (CyBC) will organize a national selection for the 2023 contest jointly with label Panik Records.[112] However, the broadcaster is yet to make a statement regarding its 2022 participation.
  •  Luxembourg – On 18 August 2021, RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg confirmed that Luxembourg would not participate in 2022.[113] Luxembourg last took part in 1993.
  •  Monaco – On 30 August 2021, Monégasque broadcaster TMC confirmed that the country would not participate in 2022.[114] Monaco last took part in 2006.
  •  Romania – On 5 July 2021, Marina Almășan, a former Romanian head of delegation, hosted a special on TVR 1, titled Eurovision... pe șleau! ("Eurovision... frankly!"), where personalities of the national music industry and previous contestants for Romania discussed the approach the country should take to future contests, implying its participation in the next edition.[115][116] However, Televiziunea Română (TVR) is yet to make an official statement regarding its 2022 participation.
  •  Slovakia – In June 2021, Radio and Television of Slovakia (RTVS) confirmed that they would not participate in 2022.[117] Slovakia last took part in 2012.
  •  Turkey – In June 2021, it was confirmed by both the EBU and İbrahim Eren, the director general of Turkish national broadcaster Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT), that they were in talks about the country potentially returning to the contest in 2022. Turkey last took part in 2012.[118]

Non-EBU members

  •  Belarus – On 28 May 2021, the EBU Executive Board agreed to suspend the membership of Belarusian broadcaster BTRC as a result of the use of the channel by the Belarusian government as a propaganda tool. The broadcaster was given two weeks to respond before the suspension came into effect, but did not do so publicly.[119] BTRC was expelled from the EBU on 1 July for a period of three years, therefore losing the rights to broadcast and participate in any Eurovision event until 1 July 2024;[120] the broadcaster subsequently released a statement affirming that they would not be supporting Belarus' participation in upcoming years, including 2022.[121][122] Belarus last took part in 2019, though it was meant to compete in the cancelled edition of 2020 and in that of 2021, before being disqualified at a late stage.
  •  Liechtenstein – In August 2021, Liechtensteiner broadcaster 1 FL TV announced that they would not debut in 2022. The broadcaster had attempted to become an EBU member in the past but halted its plans when its director, Peter Kölbel, unexpectedly died. It would also need the backing of the Liechtenstein government to be able to carry the cost of becoming an EBU member and paying the participation fee for the contest.[123]
