We would like to kindly invite all Eurovision fans to our Annual Club Convention in 2022 on November 19th at the GLORIA-Theater in Cologne.
In order to minimize the risk of possible infection with the corona virus at our club meeting, we have decided, out of consideration for all visitors, to request the submission of a negative rapid test from a certified test center (maximum 36 hours old). This will be checked upon entry into the GLORIA. We apologize for any inconvenience!
We have invited the following star guests:
|
SELMA & FRIÐRIK ÓMARAt ESC 2019, Selma and Friðrik performed as a duo in the Euro Fan Café. The two delighted the fans with a rousing ESC program. We are therefore particularly looking forward to their joint appearance.

|
In 1999, Selma became second at the ESC in Jerusalem with her song "All Out Of Luck" for Iceland. In 2005 she was already an acclaimed star guest at our club meeting. |  © RIGG VIDBURDIR Friðrik Ómar represented Iceland together with Regina Ósk as Euroband at ESC 2008 in Belgrade with "This Is My Life". In 2009 he was backing singer for Yohanna in Moscow and in 2019 he came second in the Icelandic preselection. |
|
CHIARAWith "The One That I Love" (1998, 3rd place) and "Angel" (2005, 2nd place), Chiara scratched the first ESC victory for Malta twice. We are happy to finally welcome the powerful-voiced ballad queen to our GLORIA.

|
WRSWith "Llámame" WRS landed 18th place at this year's ESC - and not only in his Romanian homeland an acclaimed summer hit.
|
In addition to the appearances of the star guests, there will again be contributions to the programme. The traditional ESC disco with DJ Ohrmeister afterwards depends on the corona rules that apply at the time.The same applies to the traditional raffle.
