The Eurovision Song Contest is an annual international song competition organised by the European Broadcasting Union and first held in 1956. The 2019 edition took place in Tel Aviv, Israel, in May 2019 and was won by the Netherlands with Duncan Laurence performing Arcade. Short broadcast cues like this stage ready sting were used between acts to signal transitions during the live shows. Clips from major televised events are often reused online as ready made intros, and this one survives as a clean cue for reveals and entrances.
