/0 Comments/in , /by

The Eurovision stage is heating up as Vesna from Czechia take over the Liverpool Arena.

Everything About Vesna

Vesna is a Czech folk band which comprises of 6 members,all of which are women.They started their career in 2016 and have released two albums ever since.They won the Czech National Final of 2023 by a wide margin and thus,earned the right to represent their homeland with the song “My Sister’s Crown”,a multilingual female empowerment anthem.

The Rehearsal

We love fierce song of Slavic sisterhood, and the huge bassline on this track sounds amazing in the Liverpool arena. The floor is thumping and what was left of the roof after Israel has now been blown off.

Vesna are performing in matching pink pantsuits, so very different from the bright colours in the Czechia national finals and the official video. The six members of the band perform a super-polished dance routine, and the whole three minutes feels really cohesive and well put together, with bags of female empowerment energy. Choose love over power, people.

Here is a clip of today’s rehearsal:

Czech Republic: The country changes its name to Czechia at Eurovision!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Name change for the Czech Republic in the Eurovision contest, which will now participate under the name Czechia and not the Czech Republic it used until now.

The change was confirmed by the country’s head of press in the competition, Ahmad Halloun, with a related Tweet.

The change has already been made on the various social media of the official Eurovision account, but also on the website of the competition. Vesna will be the first representatives of the country under this name.

The Czech Republic changed its name to Czechia from Czech Republic in 2016, and the new name gradually came to be used in all international competitions. In 2022, the country was named Czechia at the UN, so the change of name in the Eurovision song contest was an expected development.

Do you think that Czechia after the name change will have the luck of North Macedonia, which in 2019 managed to win the juries voting and achieve its best position in the contest?
