Annual convention 2024


 

We would like to kindly invite all Eurovision fans to our Annual Club Convention 
at the GLORIA-Theater in Cologne.

It will take place on November 23rd 2024.

We have invited the following star guests:

Niamh© Corinne Cumming/EBU

NEBULOSSA & DANCERS

Nebulossa didn't just stand out acoustically at the ESC in Malmö when there was plenty of male skin to admire on stage during their wickedly catchy song ‘Zorra’.
At our club meeting, they will be playing this and other songs just for us!
We're looking forward to snappy electro-pop and a great show in Cologne,
because Mery and Mark are not coming alone, but bring their dancers with them!

SARAH BONNICI

Sarah Bonnici was not to be heard on a continuous loop in Malmö, as Malta was surprisingly eliminated in the semi-finals this year. So it's high time to make up for it in Cologne.
In addition to her infectious smile and the song ‘Loop’, we are looking forward to many ESC hits at GLORIA!

   

Niamh© Sonja Lumme
SONJA LUMME

Finland's ESC representative from 1985 came ninth in Gothenburg with her song ‘Eläköön elämä’. Almost 40 years later, the song is still a hit that even younger ESC fans can sing along to. Get ready to clap along, because Sonja Lumme will be performing this and other ESC classics in Cologne.

   

 

Teya Salena© Mihai Traistariu 

MIHAI TRAISTARIU

At the ESC 2006 in Athens, Mihai Traistariu became a fan favourite with ‘Torneró’ and achieved one of the best placings for Romania with fourth place.

Hold on to your glasses and let his voice inspire you,
which has an impressive range of 5 1/3 octaves.

  

     

In addition to the appearances of the star guests, there are separate program contributions.

After the end of the stage program, our DJ Ohrmeister will be back at the ESC disco.
