Forget the Auto circuit, place with disco rollerblading. For eleven days, the Mulhouse Automobile Museum Autodrome will host the Euro Village, a real free festival on the sidelines of the Basel Eurovision. In addition to Linh, Nej ‘or Will Brown, the representative of France at Eurovision will be present, on May 9, one week before her service. “Louane will make us a voice piano on stage, it will be a highlight in emotion,” announces Frédéric Musslin, in charge of the programming.
Premises at the level
Each evening will follow the same frame: “DJ set, then group or local artist, then a top 40 name, then Blind test and others type entertainment. On the local side, Frédéric Musslin was “assailed with requests” and opted for an open scene. “I received presentations, I told myself that some had their place on the radio!” You don’t suspect the talents in the region. »»
In addition to these concerts and the obvious broadcasts live from the semi-finals and the final of Eurovision on a giant screen, many musical activities are on the program. “We have an original concept on the opening evening: the 24 karaoke. We already take pre -registration of people who know how to sing a little. They will be on stage, with real musicians, real choirs, and will perform songs of their choice. “In addition to this quirky session, another more classic karaoke,” where even the pans can sing “will take place.
1 500 m2 covered
But the scene will not be the only attraction in the village. Two rides, food trucks and a disco rollerblading track will be present. A 1500m “crystal tent”2 will offer a shelter, under which festival -goers will find a 30 m long bar.
The organization is estimated at € 200,000, entirely funded by the Region, the City, the Company to your projects and many private partners. The city even makes advertising in a flyer which will be distributed in Basel hotels, to encourage hundreds of thousands of fans to take the train to live Eurovision in Mulhouse.
