In this month's 'Did you know?' community talk, Eurovision expert, Dr Jess Carniel will explore Australia's affair with the Eurovision Song Contest. Australia is geographically very distant from Europe, but is only the second country outside Eurasia to compete in the Eurovision Song Content. What is it about this glamourous rock competition on the other side of the world that has Australians captivated, even obsessed?

After Dr Jess Carniel shares her Eurovision insights, you will be ready to hit the dancefloor!

Every Thursday evening, the Alexandra Lawson Gallery breaks out into an hour of Dancing in the dark and in celebration of Eurovision month, people who join us for the May 'Did you know?' talk will receive free entry to Dancing in the dark, which is held directly after the talk.
