WV 147 ST. JOHN'S ⛵ Come From Away ⛵ GRAND FINAL DRAW POSTED | GRAND FINAL LL TODAY 21:00 CEST 🍁

[esc87fan]

Welcome to Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada's youngest and easternmost province

Locals call it "The Rock", as much of the province is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean. It is the first place in North America to see the sun rise, and from picturesque little villages to the thriving capital city of St. John's (our host city), there is always something new to experience.

When people from outside the province visit Newfoundland, it's said that they've "come from away". It's also said that Newfoundlanders are among the friendliest people you'll ever meet, you'll be treated like family.

Please enjoy your stay!

Lovely intro! Good luck with hosting Steph

Good luck with hosting Steph!
Lovely opening banner!

The first thing about St. John's what comes to my mind is TV series Hudson & Rex.

 

[theditz83]

Best of luck with the hosting Steph

 

[esc87fan]

I am happy to announce that @Morocco2021 will be my co-host!

 

[Amir]

Good luck with hosting

I'll miss some parts of this edition since I will be in Barcelona, but I can vote in the semi before I leave and in the Final when I come back

 

[Lupus]

Best of luck with hosting Steph! Will have to think of a song that merits the occasion

 

[Stargazer]

Love it when we get to go to a new, lesser known location! Good luck with all the things!

 

[Eulaliya]

Good luck with hosting Steph!

(I was about to send my intentions for co-hosting but I forgot there's someone else doing so before my time, apologies for the delay. Curse myself and my sleep schedule for this *facepalm*)

 

[esc87fan]

I've already gotten a good start on the semifinal banners, once I get the song list they should be easy to finish. They're coming out really nice, I think you're going to like them

St John's is closer to Ireland than it is to Miami. Felt like a cool trivia.

[Amir]

the draw improved a lot for me compared to the last few editions, I can see a few people there that could like my entry :>
(and as always I love being in SF1)

 

[ShoeFlo]

It must be some unwritten rule that I am always put into Semi Final 2

other than that, I've got no strong opinion of this draw but I'd wish to have Anna in my Semi

 

[lavieenrose]

Oh my god I am such a dumb!! I ran an NF and missed the entry deadline b/c I forgot what day it was!! I'm so sorry, everyone, I'll be putting that on hold and sending the winner next time.

Probably a sign that I needed a bit of a break if I'm that disorganized, even if I'm disappointed to be missing your edition, Steph. To next edition!!

 

[theditz83]

Early starting position for a change... Let's see if that's a good sign or not.

 

[RainyWoods]

Eh at first I was like god no as my eyes went straight to the pot I'm most hopeful for with my entry to see the four people I really wanted in the first semi. A couple of other pots seem decent to good though so who knows. I'm curious and excited to find out exactly how people will react to this song. Bring this edition on!!!


And good luck of course to Steph and Looren! Can't wait for the shows.

Semi 1

 

[Stargazer]

Oh no, I hate being number one in the draw. Hopefully there will be a long intro at the LL.
