The Federal Democratic Union (EDU) wants to prevent the Eurovision Song Contest from being held in Basel from May 13 to 17, 2025. The party announced a referendum against the funding proposal on social media on Friday.
They are ready to go and will launch the referendum in a few days, the EDU announced on Platform X. The party described the ESC as a "propaganda event".
According to the cantonal government, the Basel parliament is to decide on September 11 on a financing bill of CHF 34.9 million for the ESC in Basel.
