Here is the stage for Eurovision 2017

The stage design for Eurovision 2017 has been revealed: A circular footprint, which exemplifies the theme for the contest this year: Celebrating Diversity.

The design for the Eurovision 2017 stage symbolises Ukraine being the centre of Europe in May and allows fans to be as close to the performers as possible. The dynamic stage design, which incorporates multiple media surfaces, will create a unique setting for each act, allowing every performer to shine on the night.

Look and feel

After each country has submitted their song for Eurovision 2017 to EBU, each country gives instructions to the host broadcaster on how to stage their entries, the so-called "look and feel", so the host broadcaster can begin the initial preparations of each song's stage layout. The technical team then has around 40 days to prepare lighting, LED content and camera angles for each song, based on ideas and request from each country.
