Wiwi Jam 2018

The last few years has seen the rise of the mega parties at Eurovision, from the sophistication of the Nordic Party, the pumped up Israeli Party and finally the Wiwi Jam. The great thing about the Wiwi Jam is that it is open to anyone who can secure a ticket - this year was no exception

Performances from 7 of this years Eurovision contestants, Austria, Portugal, France, Lithuania, Cyprus, Bulgaria and Azerbaijan - as well as some great previous entrants such as Slavko from Montenegro (2017) - and some National Final participants - Tom Hugo (Norway) and Rui Andrade (Portugal)

William and Deban organised a fantastic evening at the Hard Rock Cafe in Lisbon and the show was very much stolen by Eleni Foureira (Cyprus) with Fuego
