The 73rd edition of the festival of songs which inspired the creation of Eurovision Song Contest kicks off tonight.

This will be the first time that it will be broadcast in 4K. With a slightly changed formula for which they hope it will bring even more success. The contest will feature three more acts than previous year which makes them a total of 28 and for the first time ever the final vote will be done for the best five acts instead of three.  From Ariston theatre, Amadeus and Gianni Morandi will be guiding us through the show. Tonight we will get familiar the first half of the entries, 14 of them. You can also watch it HERE
