During a ‘ghostfinal’ at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, the Danish ticket for the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 has been won by Ben & Tan. The song ‘Yes’ will be used as the Danish entry in Rotterdam.
Ten acts participated in the empty arena in Denmark, an action which was taken due to the spreak of the coronavirus in Europe. After they all performed their songs, three of the made it to the super final.
The three finalists were Sander Sanchez, Ben & Tan and Emil (with a song written by Tim Schou from A Friend in London). Big surprise was the first round elimination of bookmakers favourite Jasmin Rose feat. RoxorLoops. A public and jury voted selected Ben & Tan as the eventual winner.
