Basel, Switzerland: Just hours before Saturday's Eurovision Song Contest grand final, organisers were tight-lipped about whether ailing superstar Celine Dion might make an emotional appearance, 37 years after winning the competition.
"Father Christmas exists, and you'll have to wait and see," Eurovision director Martin Green told a press conference, when asked directly if Dion might show up.
At both of Friday's dress rehearsals for the final, as at Tuesday's semi-final, a video message from Dion was played, with the presenters announcing that she could not be with them in Basel, Switzerland for the world's biggest televised live music event.
But Eurovision 2025 co-executive producer Moritz Stadler said on Saturday that the show was still being adapted.
"There are constant changes. Our team has been working overnight until very late," he said. "We continue changing it for the grand final."
