Of course we will. We're guaranteed a final place - we get to show the contest for a reasonable price - and it rates pretty well. And we came 5th last year. We just have to get our act together...

Germany last won in 1982. That was when Germany was still divided, and Nicole represented what was then West Germany. East Germany never entered the ESC.

The capital of West Germany was then Bonn, but for some reason they decided to have the 1983 Eurovision Song Contest in Munich.

Since 1991, Germany has entered the ESC as a reunified Germany. Berlin is no longer divided, and is the capital for the whole of Germany, therefore I guess ESC 2011 will be in Berlin.

It could be anywhere that they have a big enough arena, being the capital city has nothing to do with it. and as DVB Cornwall says it's being done by NDR so will probably be somewhere in the north

Is it always NDR who deal with the ESC?

The O2 World in Hamburg might be a contender, although it only holds 16,000: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O2_World_Hamburg


I notice that because Germany is host and in the 'big 4' the country that came second - Turkey will automatically qualify for next year
