Eurovision 2023 – Live Lesson

Teachers, this is Liverpool calling! We're inviting your 7-11 year-olds to take part in a Eurovision-themed Live Lesson as we get ‘United by Music’ for Eurovision 2023.

Inspired by the unique partnership between the UK, Ukraine and host city Liverpool, this 30 minute curriculum-linked programme celebrates inclusivity and explores the power of music to bring communities together through fun, interactive activities.

MOBO award winning musician and composer YolanDa Brown helps children create their own Eurovision song and big names from the world of Eurovision drop in to say hello and share their top tips.
