Subscribe and ? to Eurovision ? https://www.youtube.com/user/eurovision?sub_confirmation=1 ​ To celebrate that the Eurovision Song Contest has been By Your Side for 70 Years, this year's Host Broadcaster ORF has produced a special commemorative film following the journey of a young Austrian boy called Toni. He discovers the very first Eurovision Song Contest as a child and grows up transfixed by the songs on TV, at first by himself and then with his partner, for seven decades. The video will be used by EBU Members across Europe to promote the 70th anniversary of the Eurovision Song Contest, and it will open the First Semi-Final on 12 May. ~~~ Credits ~~~ For ORF: Head of Show: Mischa Zickler Creative Producer: Christopher Steiner Production: TVFRIENDS Executive Producer: Thomas Vacek Director: Chris Raiber DOP: Mario Minichmayr Editorial Producer: Stefanie Früholz Production Manager: Raphael Reisinger Exterior Production Manager: Nico Brandstetter Production: Lukas Kuttnig Grading: David Hughes VFX: Reinhard Moser Assistant Director: Nikolaus Sauer Technical Coordinator: Bernd Schöffmann Post Production Coordinator: Camilla Sporrer Social Media & Talent Manager: Marlene Ingruber Set Design: Julia Grevenkamp Costume Design: Zizi Bohrer-Lehner Make-Up: Tünde Kiss-Benke Editor: Andrea Guggenberger, Ben Zimmermann Sound Design & Mix: Blautöne -​ #Eurovision2026 – See you in Vienna! ?? ?
