Next year's Eurovision Song Contest will take place in either in Basel or Geneva, the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation announced on Friday. The cities of Zurich and Bern/Biel are no longer in the running, the broadcaster said. The preliminary decision had taken into account criteria such as hall concept, public transport connections, sustainability, the situation regarding hotel beds, security and disposal concepts, as well as the overall support and motivation of the respective city. The final choice of host city will be made at the end of August. The hosting costs are estimated to be around €3...

Swiss conservatives are moving to block the use of taxpayers' money to put up the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest just two months after Swiss rapper Nemo walked off with the top prize.

Geneva, Zurich, Bern or somewhere else? The deadline for cities in Switzerland to submit applications to host next year's Eurovision Song Contest is Friday.
