Rehearsals start tomorrow
Press Centre - everything ready
The press centre seems to be the largest seen for the Eurovision Song Contest, and fans of the Helsinki bean bags will be thrilled to learn of huge bean-bag rooms where they can relax, watch rehearals on screen and follow everything with a very impressive information television channel put together by RTS.
The venue is split over three levels with a large restaurant area and massive viewing area for fans to watch the live shows from the press centre. esctoday.com toured the press centre today and you can see the first photos below. Rehearsals start tomorrow at 9am and fans can follow everything with esctoday.com
You can get an idea of the way the Press Center looks in our gallery here.

MOR VE ÖTESÄ° -CRAZY (TURKEY) NUMBER ONE
to all the azeri people, today when we gave ur journalists pigeon holes, they asked us to be in the video for them, so watch us, and whe he gives the girl his accreditation, the guy next to her is ME lol
i am working there, and its so amazing! Everything is working fine, we love our boses loool well thats what we have to say lol
I hope all of u are having fun there, and i saw the stage live (after packing those eurovision bags) and it looks amazing!!!
IS THIS SERIOUS !!! What u fuckin idiot, spain should get bombarded so then we see if he will enjoy it so much !! GL from MALTA !!!
WOW, lookes great!!! Looks as if the serbs are gonna put on a really good show this year 
It looks and sounds brilliant!
I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!
First rehearsals today!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
What time is it.......? Eurovision time!!!
P.S. When is Svante Stocksellius arriving in Belgrade?
I just can't believe it that Spanish television let this clip of Belgrade with sentence " Bombing free since 1997 " (actually it was 1999) but is this really funny to anyone ??? Are ppl aver what was going on in 1999 and what does that year means to Serbia... this is not joke!
Like I said I just hope this won't be reviled public in Serbia because ppl would be discussed, and hurt and I don't think Spanish delegation would have great time here...
But this is song contest and really ppl should not pay attention to Spanish provocative video of Belgrade. Eurovision is coming...I can't wait.. Unite Unite Europe !!! 
Few days ago I celebrated my second birthday. Nine years ago I survived NATO bombing of my home in Belgrade. I find it extremely funny. Hope you'll get bombed and survive it so we could laugh to it together. Cheers!
this is gonna be the best ESC ever...and Serbian people are great...beautiful man and woman,warm,very easy going..and the stage is so huge!
BRAVO SERBIA! WELL DONE!..greetings from Macedonian fans
Well, I'm from Serbia and I really do not think this is funny.
Plus, there are many Croats, Bosnians and muslims in Serbia and they feel here like at home.
Oh, just to correct something... We were bombed in 1999...
can't wait for rehearsals!
eurovision time has began!
I think they shouldn't say "Bombing free since 1997" I don't think is funny, and I definitely don't think anyone in Serbia will think this is funny... I just hope video won't be relished public in Serbia.
But yes I think also it's just show... well no harm done.
Just about 3/4 year(9 months) until MF-09!
I just love the press centar Eurovision is coming ........ So excited
Night Elf
I think it is just a humor show
Well, I hope it is...
I agree!!
Vote Sweden the winner!!!!
P. Eriksson
We are very fast friends!
Did someone look at Spain's Andreu Buenafuente show and his video of Belgrade in witch he says all the worst about the town.... The video is really humiliating Serbia!
You can watch on this link... I don't think this is good for Spain, and if this go public in Serbia Rodolfo and his "Baila el Chiki Chiki" will be so booed in Belgrade...

OMG! Just some days left now, until the ESC-2008! Hope to see Charlotte become the first woman to win twice! But I'm happy as long as the voting are fair!
Here, here!!
You going to witness a Sweden win!!!!
Everything looks so great! I wish I could be there already...
i can feel Eurovision is almost here, IM SOOOOO EXCITED !!
Willox Willox, are you by any chance Swedish? Then, I suppose, you also think The Ark was so robbed by the Finnish team, and also that rotating thing stopped all of a sudden when Ola was on it. It was so unfair. It was as if someone was taking the piss on Sweden.
I hope all will be fine in Belgrade for Eurovision 2008. I am sure it will be great. I hope the various reports in certain media are wrong and ALL vistors will have an enjoyable time.See link
