The BBC’s head of unscripted content, Kate Phillips, said: There are 7 fantastic cities to advance to the next round.

“Congratulations to Birmingham, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and Sheffield. We are delighted to see such a wide range of bids taking place across the UK. We are committed to offering a truly unique song contest that celebrates the great Ukraine and champions British music and creativity in all its diversity.”

Desired cities have been selected that meet certain criteria for hosting Eurovision: venue capacity, easy access to international airports, and sufficient hotel accommodations to accommodate a minimum of 2,000 delegates, journalists and spectators.

According to the BBC, the selection process focused on cities that could demonstrate experience in hosting major international events and demonstrate their ability to celebrate contemporary music.

The seven finalists are now required to enter the second and final phase, providing additional details about their plans.

Winners will be selected by the BBC in conjunction with the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), and successful cities will be announced in the fall.

The UK has previously hosted eight Eurovision Song Contests: London (1960, 1963, 1968, 1977), Edinburgh (1972), Brighton (1974), Harrogate (1982) and Birmingham (1998).

Meanwhile, it has been confirmed that the 2023 host city will have to cancel several other events scheduled at the venue of choice to make room for next year’s annual singing contest.
