Welcome to the Éirevision Podcast. A podcast with a unique Irish perspective on the Eurovision Song Contest.

    Ireland rehearsal reaction + Our final pre-show predictions!

    Ireland rehearsal reaction + Our final pre-show predictions!

    It's nearly time to hear the iconic Eurovision intro music. But before that, we're sharing our final pre-show/pre-Eurovision predictions for 2024.

    As we went to record this episode, RTÉ released a snippet of Bambie Thug's rehearsal for Ireland. It's safe to say we went into meltdown alongside the rest of the Eurovision community. Listen to our reaction only minutes after our first watch.

    We'd also like to thank you for listening and supporting us throughout the season. The podcast would be nothing with you - the listeners! Make sure you are strapped in and ready as we're ramping things up next week as we're live from Malmö!

    Eurovision 1994: 30th Anniversary Celebration

    Eurovision 1994: 30th Anniversary Celebration

    On April 30th 1994, the Eurovision Song Contest came to Ireland for the fifth time following back-to-back wins. Today, we're celebrating 30 years since Dublin hosted an iconic edition of the contest which saw Paul Harrington and Charlie McGettigan complete the hat trick for Ireland, the iconic interval act performance and birth of Riverdance, and ultimately Ireland's sixth win.

    To help us celebrate, we're delighted to be joined by three iconic figures from the 1994 contest. To start, we chat the one of our hosts from the evening - Cynthia Ní Mhurchú. Alongside the late Gerry Ryan, Cynthia guiding over 300 million viewers through the extravaganza on the night - including introducing Riverdance to the world.

    Of course, we could not celebrate the 1994 contest without speaking to the winners. It is an honour to speak with the rock 'n' roll kids themselves, Paul Harrington & Charlie McGettigan. Paul & Charlie share how they came together to perform "Rock 'n' Roll Kids" on the Eurovision stage, share funny stories from their travels across Europe, and how the song remains as popular as ever.
