Eurovision Song Contest 2022

It’s time for a new thread! Excited / nervous for the events set to take place in [Enter city here], Italy courtesy of RAI!

Looks like San Marino may be first to announce this year, now they have moved their selection process to November 2021.

Sis, the thread title!

I know one person that is very happy he stepped down from his job just in time.

I hope it's in Milan. Rome is much more culturally interesting, but I found Milan a lot more lively at night. Also Milan has a budget airport that is really well connected to the city, whereas Rome is pricey to fly to.

The largest arenas in Italy are in Turin and Milan, I bet it's gonna be in one of these two.

All the jokes I see about RAI hosting the show next year are funny but just how much leeway does the host broadcaster has? Apparently when Italy last hosted in 1991 it was a big mess but, watching the show for the past 10 years, it looks like production is very similar every every year. EBU probably has pretty strict guidelines and quality control?
 
I would love for two things from Euromess 1991 to be recycled for 2022:
- Opening act: Celebration - The Eurovision 2022 remix by the Italian DJ du jour sung by three/four Italian popstars with Sara Carlson appearing in the end.
- Postcards of the contestants singing Italian songs, if not for the show proper (so Graham Norton et al wouldn't talk over their singing) at least for some online content.
