AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – Fans will be allowed to attend the Eurovision song contest in Rotterdam next month, ANP News reported on Thursday, citing a decision by the Dutch government.

Organizers had previously said it was not yet clear whether a live audience would be allowed to attend the event’s semifinals and finals on May 18-22, given continuing high levels of coronavirus infection in the Netherlands.
