Fionnuala Sweeney: The atmosphere in Millstreet was electric!
The 1993 Eurovision Song Contest was a landmark show in the history of the competition. It was the year that the contest welcomed new participating countries from eastern Europe and the year that a relegation system was introduced for the first time. The contest was held in the small town of Millstreet, County Cork, the most westerly location that the Eurovision Song Contest has ever been staged in. The host for the contest that year was Fionnuala Sweeney, who was recently voted one of the most popular presenters of the Eurovision Song Contest from the 1990s. Fionnuala kindly took time out to speak to Eurovision.tv about her memories from the time.
