The opening act saw a mix of Swiss heritage and Eurovision combined to create a spectatular show on stage. We saw dancers and yodellers on stage, as “Arcade” by Duncan Laurence and “The Code” by Nemo was played on an Alphorn, accompanied by yodelling.
In this semi final, we saw not one but two interval acts. The first interval act saw hosts Hazel and Sandra performing a song that talks about Swiss inventionsand stereotypes. They were later joined by Swedish icon Petra Mede who joined in for the latter part of the performance.
