With full coverage and analysis of the set test piece performances, interspersed with video pieces each band is preparing, to give a look at their preparations, and expert guest commentary, this will be a full on day, closing with a full round up of the day's action.

We shall also have our roving camera in the halls and bars of the hall, getting audience reaction and thoughts and looking at the more social side of this year's Euro Festival.
