Four German cities, including Berlin, Hamburg, and Hannover, bid on hosting the 2011 event, and Düsseldorf had the best fit for the high requirements in staging the enormous event. The event venue, Düsseldorf’s ESPRIT Arena, will be reserved exclusively for a total of six weeks to accommodate ESC set-up and execution. Soccer games and other events scheduled for this time will move to alternate venues.
