Eurovision warms up with over-60s disco

Nearly 1,400 senior citizens attended the bash, an attempt to reach out to the older demographic and get them involved in the Eurovision Song Contest festivities. The Swiss border city of Basel is hosting this year's edition of the glitzy extravaganza, one of the world's biggest annual live television shows. It is throwing a range of events around the sidelines to make the most of the occasion. "It's a highlight of the Eurovision for me," said Liz Gilbert, 64, who came dressed in a 1970s outfit.
