Eurovision Song Contest 1957

The Eurovision Song Contest 1957 was the 2nd Eurovision, it was held in Germany on March 3rd and the presenter was Anaid Plikjan. Corry Brokken was the winner of this Eurovision with the song, Net Als Toen.

The second contest was still mainly a radio program, but the increasing number of people with televisions, was noticed. Altough Switzerland won in 1956, it was not held again in Switzerland because the rule stating that the winning nation hosted the next years Eurovision was not yet created. It was origionally planned that each participating contry would take it in turns to host the event, but as more countries wished to participate, this became impossible.
