Eurovisioncast plans to give people the inside gossip on plans and unique insights on the competition whilst listeners will also hear from former contestants, those set to take part in the 2023 contest and celebrity fans.

The competition lands in Liverpool in May after the European Broadcasting Union decided the current champions, Ukraine, were incapable of holding the contest due to their ongoing conflict with Russia.

The weekly podcast will be available on BBC Sounds from January 31 and will be broadcast on BBC Radio 5 live and BBC Radio Merseyside.
