Melody hopes to have extra help in the final this Saturday. There is free pizza and boat trip for those who align in this strategy.
The final of the 69th edition of the Song Eurovision Festival It takes place this Saturday. As always, the Spain It will be there. Since participating (1961), the Spanish have always been present.
This time Spain comes on stage with Melody, the singer and one of the authors of the song, winner of Benidorm Fest 2025 and, consequently, representative of Spain in Eurovision.
Spain has not been happy in Eurovision. Despite always being assured in the final, because it is one of the “Big Five”, in the last 20 years it has often ended near the last placeor even in the last place. Exception to 2022, when Chanel jumped to 3rd.
Expectations are not high but RTVE expects to have a little help from… Telepizza.
The newspaper explains: a Telepizza offers a slice of pizza and a free boat trip to Spaniards who vote in Portugal… But in Spain.
Confused? But it’s easy to see.
The campaign is called a TV. It presents itself as a different and fun initiative.
Will start late Saturday afternoon in Ayamonte, locality next to the Guadiana River. There will be two boats To take the more than 100 participants in the initiative – with music and food on board – towards Vila Real de Santo António.
Sim, On the other side of Rio is Portugal.
And what does it matter? Is that, thus, the Spaniards are no longer in Spain and can vote for Spain. As is well known, the rules of the eurovision of the song do not allow to vote in the country where the person is.
But if they cross the border, right next door, the Spaniards can already vote for Spanish music. Because they are in Portugal.
When the festival is over, there will be buses to bring the Spaniards from Portugal to Spain.
This idea of Telepizza has a context: Melody, the singer, has admitted several times that Telepizza is one of her favorite brands.
The entrance is free. With limited stocking, of course.
In the last two editions, on the Televote, Portugal only gave 3 points to Spain.
