Slogan for Eurovision 2019 revealed: Dare to Dream

The European Broadcasting Union, EBU, has just announced the slogan for Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv: Dare to Dream.

Jon Ola Sand, Executive Supervisor of the Eurovision Song Contest, talks about the ideas behind the slogan:

– This aspirational tag line represents and symbolises everything that the Eurovision Song Contest is about. It’s about inclusion. It’s about diversity. It’s about unity, says Jon Ola Sand.

– Being on that stage, daring to dream you can win the Eurovision Song Contest, be brave enough, be confident enough, standing there performing for a world audience is something that is worth the dream. This is what Netta did last year, when she performed in Lisbon. She went on that stage with a dream — a dream to bring the Eurovision Song Contest back to Israel. And she succeeded. And next year in May, in Tel Aviv, we will all meet to celebrate the good values of the Eurovision Song Contest and we will do it here, with the help of broadcaster KAN and the Israel team.

During the official slogan unveiling ceremony, that took place today in Jerusalem with executives from KAN and the EBU, The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, said:

– Netta dared to dream. Eurovision is coming to Israel this year (2019). I dare to dream that Eurovision will be in Israel also in the the year after. I'm sure all the songs will be great, but we dream and will also making our dreams a reality, said Benjamin Netanyahu.

The theme artwork will be revealed at a later date.
