Over the past week, organisers for the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest have been announcing the guest performers we will be seeing during each of the live shows. With the release of the media handbook, all of the interval performers have been confirmed.
We previously learned that Diodato and the Rockin’ 1000 would be among the guest performers taking to the Pala Olimpico stage for the live shows of Eurovision 2022. The media handbook for the 2022 contest has revealed the full line-up for both semi-finals and the Grand Final.
For the Grand Final, reigning champions Måneskin will take to the stage for an interval performance, a year after their victory in Rotterdam’s Ahoy. They have recently been recording their next album in Los Angeles, California.
