In a few hours, the long-awaited final of the Benidorm Fest 2024 will take place from the Palau d’Esports l’Illa de Benidorm. The Valencian city has been decked out for the event, and many Eurofans have traveled from all over Spain to enjoy the gala live. So much is the expectation that nothing else is being talked about in the streets.
An appointment in which the eight artists who managed to get through the semi-finals will fight for the bronze microphone that will give them a direct pass to Eurovision. And, despite the fact that all the favorites have managed to pass, echoes of victory can already be heard for some.
“Inside me I have only gratitude”, expressed St. Pedro at the press conference after the second semi-final. In fact, he managed to win the favor of the professional jury and the public and received 164 points. It’s strange to Ino that her face has radiated happiness ever since. The one from Tenerife is proposed, therefore, as the great favorite of the edition.
With a very intimate song and a minimalist staging in which he is the main protagonist, a series of silhouettes show memories of a past relationship. A staging that brought everyone in the stadium to their feet and brought a few tears to their eyes.
And, despite the fact that everything points to the fact that he will be the great winner of the night, he cannot be lost sight of. “Bitch, bitch, bitch” is already a cry that echoes every time the group enters the scene. The duo formed by María Bas and Mark Dasousa could not even imagine what would happen when they presented to the casting by chance.
The stadium turned with his performance in the first semi-final. In fact, from inside it was difficult to listen carefully to the singer’s voice. An apotheosis that made them grow and improve in terms of the final tests and that made them achieve 149 points.
During the interviews, they confessed that she was the one who secretly decided to send the song to RTVE. Now, her husband and duo partner is very grateful. “I have to thank you, because I didn’t believe in it, but I accompanied you in your dream, love, and I just want you to have a lot of luck”, assured Dasousa in one of the press conferences. Right after, they melted into a kiss that drew applause from all the press present.
Together with them, Jorge González and Angy Fernández are at the top of the betting houses. However, it seems that they will have a very difficult time against the two great titans of the edition. In fact, we will have to wait until tonight to find out the final outcome in a gala that promises many surprises. Among the star guests is Camela. The announcement generated numerous positive comments on social networks, with some even asking for their participation next year.
But, if there is one thing that the audience looks forward to, it is to see the performances of the contestants. María Peláe will open the final with Remitente, followed by St. Pedro and Dos Extraños, and an emotional ballad to the rocker Sé quién soy by Angy Fernández. Then it will be the turn of Jorge González with Caliente, Nebulossa with Zorra, Sofia Coll with Here to stay and Miss Caffeina with Bla, blah, blah. And, just before the votes, Almácor will make everyone dance with Brillos platino and in this way, close the competition.
Despite the tension, if anything is certain it is that everyone will try to enjoy the festival experience to the maximum before the Eurovision celebration in Malmö on May 11.
