The organization of Eurovision in Switzerland next year arouses only limited enthusiasm, Blick noted on Saturday, based on a Sotomo survey. Only 46% of those surveyed are delighted with the event.

Conversely, 49% of respondents answered “no” or “rather no”. The remaining 5% say they do not yet have a clear opinion on the subject. Women enjoy it more than men. The older people are, the more skeptical they become.
In the parties, the Greens are the most enthusiastic with 72% of people in favour. A majority is also emerging in the PS, among the Liberal Greens and in the Centre.
Supporters of the UDC and the PLR are much less convinced. At the UDC, 74% of those questioned were against the coming of the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) to Switzerland. A majority of non-partisans say they are not happy either.
The cities of Bern and Biel together, Geneva, Zurich and Basel are candidates to organize the event. ESC 2025 will take place in Switzerland after Nemo’s victory this year. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and SSR will announce the name of the host city at the end of August.
