Hey there,
Hard to believe, but yes, the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Basel is already history!
You think you've heard all the stories? Well, hold on tight!
In our live-streaming format, powered by FHGR students, we take a deep dive into the ESC's past and shine the spotlight on the most entertaining, chaotic and absurd stories.
In focus: Moritz Stadler and Reto Peritz, our co-executive producers who survived glitter, cable chaos and adrenaline.
They tell what really went on behind the scenes and may even surprise themselves in the process: from people who were thrown in the water, moments that changed everything, and how the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 enlivened and inspired Basel.
So grab a drink, sit back, and join us on a trip back to a time of loudness, wildness, magic, and sometimes just plain craziness.
