In 2010, an Icelandic diva took to the Eurovision stage in Oslo and has remained in our hearts since.
Thanks to Je ne sais quoi, Hera Björk became a household name in every Eurovision-loving home, and we keep hoping she’d visit.
Finally, after an aborted attempt in 2020 and a return ESC performance in 2024, we get to have the Queen of Effing Everything on Aussie soil.
Michael and Io chat with Hera about finally being in Australia and what it’s taken to get here. Plus, enjoy a special live performance of that 2010 banger made intimate!
What lifestyle show starring Hera will Michael be pitching to SBS?
Where will Hera be off to while she’s here?
What’s so special about Australia?

- See Hera perform on the Main Stage at Midsumma Carnival on Sunday 19 January 2025
- Grab tickets to Hera’s residency cabaret show at Pride of our Footscray from 21 to 25 January 2025 via the Midsumma website
