Following the cancellation of the 2020 contest due to the COVID-19 crisis, the Eurovision Song Contest returned in 2021, hosted in Rotterdam. Extensive preparations ensured the show went on with a limited audience and contingency plans, such as pre-recorded 'Live-on-Tape' performances for all artists. These measures were put to the test. Australia, unable to travel, was the only country to use its taped performance. Iceland's rehearsal footage was used for their live show appearances after a delegation member tested positive for COVID-19; the group still finished in 4th place. Italian alt-rock band Måneskin won with their song 'Zitti E Buoni', which became a global streaming hit. The contest's return was a huge success, attracting 183 million viewers and achieving massive online engagement, particularly with younger audiences. The slogan from the cancelled 2020 event, #OpenUp, was carried over.
