Today the rehearsals for Eurovision 2024 start/continue in Malmö. Countries rehearsing on Day 2 include Iceland, Slovenia, Finland, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Australia, Portugal, and Luxembourg. The eigth to rehearse today is Luxembourg’s TALI.
TALI’s first rehearsal
The next to take to the Eurovision 2024 stage at Malmö Arena in Malmö was Luxembourg’s TALI. TALI will be competing in this year’s competition with her entry “Fighter” following her victory at the Luxembourg Song Contest.
Following Tali’s first rehearsal a clip of what went on was posted on the official TikTok account of the Eurovision Song Contest. The clip showed her before and after she took to the Eurovision stage for the first time, as well as giving us some insight into how well her first rehearsal went.
Once the official Eurovision TikTok has been uploaded, you can watch it here.
What did we learn about Tali’s staging?
The vibe of the staging looks to be different from her Luxembourg Song Contest performance. She’s changed into a black bodysuit whereas her dancers are in a more colourful getup. There is a lot of pyro, and they’ve clearly taken inspiration from the stage as there are cubes behind them to frame Tali and her dancers nicely. You can tell Luxembourg are going for a big finish in Semi-Final One.
What we thought of Tali’s first rehearsal
After Luxembourg’s first rehearsal, Jazzi gave her initial thoughts on the snippet that we saw.
As soon as our reaction to the first rehearsal is up, you can watch it here.
