The 65th edition of Eurovision has been officially canceled, per an announcement from the event’s organizer, the European Broadcasting Union. 

“The uncertainty created by the spread of Covid-19 throughout Europe — and the restrictions put in place by the governments of the participating broadcasters and the Dutch authorities — means the European Broadcasting Union has taken the difficult decision that it is impossible to continue with the live event as planned,” the EBU said in a statement.

The over-the-top song contest was set to take place in Rotterdam in May, with the semi-finals scheduled for May 12th-14th, with the finale scheduled for May 16th.
