The four acts will perform at the Eurovision Village on Friday, May 12, hosted by TikTok creator Coco Sarel and celebrated electronic DJ, broadcaster and presenter Arielle Free.

Ukraine's first Eurovision winner, Ruslana who won the 2004 Contest with the song 'Wild Dances', will be making a very special appearance at the Legends Performance. Back in 2004, the song received 280 points, a record number at the time, and dominated the European charts for 97 weeks after the contest. Following her victory, Ruslana rose to fame in Europe and became one of the biggest pop stars from the Eastern part of the continent.

Sweden's popular Eurovision legend Charlotte Perrelli won the 1999 Contest with her song 'Take Me To Your Heaven'. The much-loved act subsequently returned to represent Sweden again in the 2008 Contest, making it to the finals with the song 'Hero'.

Katrina, formerly of 1980s pop sensations Katrina and the Waves, were one of the most successful acts to perform in the Eurovision Song Contest, enjoying a string of hits and a Grammy award nomination for Best New Artist.

More information is available on TikTok's newsroom here, including the Liverpool TikTok City of Music Partnership with Visit Liverpool and TikTok's 'where stars get started' advertising campaign with Sam Ryder.
