Jamie Walker from CJ's Events Warwickshire said: "It's been incredible to see so many people enjoying themselves in the heart of our town. 

"Eurovision is about being united by music, and Leamington really embraced that spirit. 

"The event has certainly grown since the first event last year, and we're already in discussions with Warwick District Council to host the event in 2026, which will remain a free public event."
