Stakeholder event

Yesterday we were delighted to see so many people attend our second Stakeholder Event at ACC Liverpool. It was a really productive morning during which the host city team gave an update, and it was also a chance for businesses across the city region to discover how they can capitalise on our Eurovision journey. 

There was also a sneak peak of the branding which organisations or groups will be able to use to showcase that they are supporting Eurovision with events and activities. This brand toolkit will be released mid-March, with a view to a brand roll-out from 1 April. Expect more updates soon. 

Job Fair

Growth Platform, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, Liverpool City Council and the Department for Work and Pensions yesterday hosted a recruitment fair for employers across the City Region in preparation for Eurovision. 

Aimed at local hospitality businesses looking to recruit new staff and diversify their workforce for Eurovision and beyond, as well as promoting Supported Internships, the day was a huge success with 43 employers getting involved with approximately 1,500 vacancies on offer for jobseekers. The event feedback has already been overwhelmingly positive with many welcoming the opportunity to be part of our vibrant visitor economy sector. 

There are lots of announcements in the glittery pipeline, but expect to hear more very soon about brilliant EuroLearn, Culture Liverpool's schools programme which will give children and young people across the city the chance to join in the Eurovision excitement. 

We’ll  also be announcing EuroStreets, our community programme, which will bring people together and will also give organisations the chance to bid for funding for their own projects.
