Awards to be given: you decide!

Eurovision is over, but Eurovision season is definitely not. There are some awards to be given after the contest.

We would like to recommend you to vote for the Barbara Dex Award. The annual award is given to the artist or group wearing the most remarkable clothes. Our friends of songfestival.be are the organizers of the prize. Two years ago, Portuguese Conan Osiris won the prize. You can find an overview of all the winners, including their videos, here. You can vote for this year’s award here.

Barbara Dex, the namegiver of the award.

Another Award is especially interesting for our Dutch and Belgian visitors: the Eurovision Artists Award. Our friends of Eurovision Artists award the prize to a person, persons, an organization or initiative from the Netherlands or Belgium who has or has promoted the Eurovision Song Contest in the media in a special way. It is an annual prize. Due to COVID19 it was not awarded last year. Two years ago it was won by the website Eurostory, a literary-journalistic site about the Eurovision song contest. For this years award you can vote here.
