Reopening of the Old Bridge
Eurovision stars at Mostar celebrations
Bosnia-Herzegovina will experience a historical night tomorrow. In Mostar, the Stari Most (Old Bridge) will be reopened. To celebrate this, a huge international event involving international speakers as well as performers has been organised. Among them several former Eurovision Song Contest participants.
In 1993, the Stari Most bridge was destroyed during the civil war. Tomorrow night, 11 years later, the rebuilt bridge will be reopened. The Stari Most is one of the most prestigeous and ambitious UNESCO projects as they used adequate materials and forgotten technologies, to build a replica of this lost heritage.
To celebrate this historical night a huge concert will be given, starring several former Eurovision Song Contest participants: Zdravko Colic (Yugoslavia 1973), Magazin (Croatia 1995), Danijela (Croatia 1998), Dino Merlin (Bosnia-Herzegovina 1999) and Deen (Bosnia-Herzegovina 2004).
International guests include Shakira, Bono Vox (U2), Luciano Pavarotti, Tarkan and Mustafa Sandal.
