At the annual EBU press conference, the supervisor of the contest, Svante Stockselius, among other things explained about the future of Eurovision.
The format currently in use will be in use one more year. After that, a two semi final system will be introduced. Exactly how everything around this will be solved is not yet decided, but what Svante made very clear is that the way the countries will be divided into the two semi finals will be decided by a draw and not by time-zones, in spite of rumours that have been circulating the media. If the big four countries will participate in the semi-finals or not is yet to be decided.
The preliminary dates for next year's contest are 22nd and 24th of May.
