In today’s episode of Business Daily we’ll see how Eurovision goes so much further than the stage.

We head to this year’s host city, Turin in Italy, to see whether there’s a been boost in local business there.

We hear from Ochman who's representing Poland, on how his career has changed since becoming an act, and from Emmelie De Forest who represented Denmark in 2013, who says the competition was both a "blessing, and a curse".

Dr Filippos Filippidis, from Imperial College London, tells us about the positive effect that Eurovision can have on a country's mental health. And Dr Adrian Kavanagh from Maynooth University in Ireland, talks about the economic impact of hosting.

We also speak to one of the competition’s most famous former presenters, Danish actor Pilou Asbaek.
