It’s Estonia’s cultural centre: Previewing Eesti Laul 2024

Comedy, JOYEurovision: The Show, Music, National Finals, Society & Culture

Having recently been named Europe’s new Cultural Centre, Estonia has a lot to live up to. One of those challenges is Eesti Laul, the annual song competition used to select the Nordic state’s Eurovision entry.

While Michael and Io might not be waking up at 4:30am on Sunday 18 February to watch the live stream in Melbourne, they’re still pretty interested in what Estonia is putting up in their national final. Join them to hear what they think of the five jury-chosen and five semi-final winners who make up the 2024 grand final.

Why isn’t Liam sharing his thoughts?

What sent Io to sleep?

How strategic should Estonia get in choosing their winner?
