The second live show from Turin is being broadcasted tonight. Let’s see, which countries will get a slot for the Grand Final on Saturday.

This is already the second semi-final of this year’s ESC in Turin. There are 18 songs fighting for a place in the Grand Final on Saturday, only 10 can go.

Like in the first semi-final, the host broadcaster RAI has not made a big effort with a great opening, like we are used from former ESC’s. We can just hope that it will be done for the Grand Final.

Beside of the 18 entries, the highlight will definitely be the stage appearance of Il Volo, who made a great 3rd place in Vienna, 2015 with “Grand Amore”. They are going to perform their Eurovision entry in English in a faster version.

Furthermore the remaining Big 5 countries. Germany, Spain and UK will be presented.

Watch the Semi-Final 2 at 21.00
