Is this happening in 2016? Or was 2014 truly the last year?

They said it was coming back this year but it hasn't materialised...
Still, I'm in Stockholm now for the real thing....

Yes I also heard that it was coming back this year but cant find anything about it. Shame as I went to the last two and its one of the best nights out and travelling home in the morning after the show just as the sun is coming up!

I am a volunteer for Madtrust (Theatremad) and me and my friend kevin are the guys who came up with the idea for west end eurovision, due to Madtrust moving offices and other major happenings it will now most likely return in 2017 i for one am so excited to see it return, especially after seeing last nights opening to eurovision semi final 2 they must have seen the west end eurovision opening numbers and thought what a great way to start the show! I look forward to seeing you all when west end eurovision returns

Great news. I've been to several in the past and it's a total riot. This will be the first time on a sunday as usually it's midweek and starts about 11.30pm and finishes about 3am. Then night bus home for me. I am guessing with it on a Sunday it will be at a slightly more normal time. The late night performance was fun though as most people were 10 sheets to the wind by the time it started which made for a great atmosphere.

Excellent news, this really was so much fun and I loved loved loved that the shows that got involved seemed to have a good time too. The Irish entry All Kinds of Everything will no longer be sung as "Early Morning Dew" ....

The great thing when they did the shows at 11pm is that most of the audience were 10 sheets to the wind by that time which made for a great atmosphere. I remember staying for the after show party one year and getting the first tube home in the morning.

Yeah, not VIP for me! Shaftesbury rather than the barn that is Dominion.

Thanks for the heads up, would have been nice if they had emailed previous supporters....
Anyway, at £100 for a VIP seat that I can’t select, or £53 for front stalls at the side and a seat I can choose, I’m going non VIP this time...

Aladdin and Phantom are hilarious. Mamma Mia seems to have sound issues
