easyJet Becomes the Official Airline of Eurovision Song Contest with Multi-Year Partnership

Europe’s leading airline easyJet has been announced as the Official Airline Partner of the Eurovision Song Contest in a three-year deal, bringing Europe together to celebrate the world’s largest live music event.

The partnership is being supported by agency partners mSix&Partners and DEPT® and the campaign ‘It’s your show, get out there’ will build on easyJet’s “Get Out There” brand platform, aiming to lift everyone into the unbounded joy of travel and put customers at the centre of the excitement, inviting them to break away from the every day. 

easyJet will fly thousands of visitors from across Europe travelling for this year’s contest into Copenhagen airport, which provides quick, direct access to the host city of Malmö, Sweden where the live semi-final and final events will take place on 7th, 9th and 11th May. The airline will operate over 10% more seats to and from Copenhagen compared to the same period last year.

Gabriella Neudecker, marketing director, easyJet said, “We couldn’t be prouder to be the Official Airline Partner for the Eurovision Song Contest for the coming years. Travel offers you that rare opportunity to break away from the everyday and to feel totally in the moment, just as the iconic Eurovision Song Contest does. People, countries and communities are brought together, anything is possible and everyone is welcome. At easyJet we share all of these important values and are proud to play our part in connecting people across Europe.”

Martin Österdahl, executive supervisor, Eurovision Song Contest said, "We’re thrilled to welcome easyJet as the Official Airline Partner for the Eurovision Song Contest. We both share a passion for connecting people and cultures, and look forward to taking off together as we unite the joy of music and the freedom of travel.”

Through this partnership, it is possible to demonstrate that it's your show, get out there"
