The Grand Duchy has confirmed its hosting team for the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest in May, bringing back familiar faces from the Luxembourg Song Contest!
Spokesperson for Luxembourg
On 11 May, Désirée Nosbusch will have the vital task of announcing Luxembourg's points distribution after the votes have been counted.
Nosbusch is a Eurovision veteran by now, starting out as a host in 1984's competition, held in Luxembourg City. She also co-presented this year's Luxembourg Song Contest in Esch-sur-Alzette. Now, she will get to deliver Luxembourg's votes and share the country's selection for the iconic 'douze points', for the first time in three decades.
