On the fourth day in Rotterdam all the entries from the first semi-final without Malta had to rehearse. Having a full rehearsal day from a complete semi-final is always very tough, as one follows the other in a short time, 20 minutes instead of 30 minute, additionally press conference had to be held. For the first time there was also a snippet of the Australian entry “Technicolour” shown. The full version will probably be shown in the first dress rehearsal in the complete show. Most acts could be improved and the singers sang much better than in the first rehearsal.

All acts have been reviewed by the delegations and changes could be made. No major changes were made, the Israeli singer Eden Alene is wearing her hair crown from the beginning and so on. Luckily the Ukrainian lead singer Kateryna is having a negative corona test, after feeling sick.
