Yorkshire will not play host to the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, it has been confirmed
after the UK was given the chance to host the event for the ninth time – more than any other country – after Sam Ryder came second in the competition.
Of the seven cities named in August, six were in England, one in Scotland, with Belfast failing to make the cut for Northern Ireland.
