	Great game deserved to be published for a long time now.

	You should also accept "Goteborg" for Gothenburg, since that's the actual Swedish spelling sans umlaut.

	mselby:	May 26th, 2012 at 04:27 GMT		7 points
	Okay, I wouldn't want to anger any Swedes. I added an alternate answer for Goteborg.

	Wouldn't it be Western Germany for before 1989?

	Here's hoping Bucharest is the answer for 2013! GO ROMANIA!!! Also best of luck to Cyprus, Estonia, and Hungary!

	never heard of Lugano, Hilversum, Harrogate or Lausanne hence 4 of the ones I missed

	Along the lines of "Goteborg", you really should accept "Den Haag" for "The Hague".

	Think it's going to be Stockholm 2013 as well?

	xolkan - Israel hosted the song contest in '79 and '99 because they were winners of the '78 and '98 contests with "A-Ba-Ni-Bi" and "Diva" The contest is open to all members of the European Broadcasting Union which includes non-European countries such as Israel, as well as Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Georgia, Jordan, Morocco and Tunisia. Of these all but Algeria, Egypt and Jordan have participated in at least one contest.

	Even though riddler pointed it out years before the quiz was published, Birmingham remains in the "Untied Kingdom".

	Radinden:	May 26th, 2012 at 08:06 GMT		11 points
	"Untied Kingdom"? Good typo!

	holytriplem:	May 26th, 2012 at 10:00 GMT		1 point
	where the hell is millstreet?

	HARROGATE has hosted Eurovision? Wow...

	Triffid:	May 26th, 2012 at 10:51 GMT		4 points
	Den Haag. Come on, these things should be sorted out before getting to the front page. (Untied Kingdom should stay though)

	Statto2:	May 26th, 2012 at 10:59 GMT		9 points
	Will it become the "Untied Kingdom" if Scotland opts for independence? Memories of place names on the dials of some radios when I was young got me Hilversum.

	@EggHeadNurse 'All but Algeria, Egypt, and Jordan'...true, but you could say that Tunisia hasn't participated either; I think they had an entry ready to go in 1977, but eventually withdrew before the actual contest. @holytriplem It's a village in County Cork. Almost as soon as Ireland won the '92 contest, a local businessman successfully lobbied the EBU to host the next Eurovision in an equestrian arena there. It remains the smallest host 'city' to date, not that it's a record that looks likely to be beaten any time soon!

	Could you accept "Napoli" for Naples? and also that Millstreet answer is very deceiving. Millstreet has a population of 1500, it is in no way a city. I think Cork should be accepted for Millstreet. Just my two cents...

	LinnS:	May 26th, 2012 at 12:58 GMT		3 points
	Actually, the correct Swedish spelling of Gothenburg is "Göteborg", with "ö". And also - Eurovision Song Contest 2010 was more specifically in Bærum. Even if Bærum is situated within the area of Oslo, that is the name of the municipality, and the name of the actual city is Fornebu. You can sure accept Oslo, but it would be great if you did also accept Bærum and Fornebu.

	Typo, 1998 should say "United Kingdom", not "Untied Kingdom"

	Cyborgsun:	May 26th, 2012 at 16:08 GMT		4 points
	Please accept "Malmö" for Malmo. It bothered me that I didn't get it right just because I used the correct spelling.

	Cheeselord:	May 26th, 2012 at 16:19 GMT		4 points
	Got Harrogate only because of a trivia Quiz Show on the BBC- Pointless- with this exact question.

	neiliog93:	May 26th, 2012 at 16:40 GMT		1 point
	Millstreet is in the city of Cork. I'm Irish and I can tell you that Millstreet is not a city - the right answer is Cork for 1993.

	@EggHeadNurse, oh I never knew that, thanks.

	Quizmaster91:	May 26th, 2012 at 20:30 GMT		9 points
	They never hosted the Eurovision in Waterloo? Missed opportunity...

	citkeane:	May 27th, 2012 at 13:51 GMT		5 points
	While I agree that Millstreet isn't a city, with only 1500 people, it also isn't in Cork City, as some people have been saying (neiliog93). It's around 50km outside Cork City.

	Dantelle:	Jun 16th, 2012 at 12:03 GMT		2 points
	Why is "Göteborg" not accepted? This is the only spelling I know.

	Razorblade:	May 1st, 2013 at 18:38 GMT		4 points
	2013: Malmo, Sweden
