I really love that they said 'Welcome' in every language of the 26 finalists, and they tried their very best to pronounce it well.
hope they'll continue this tradition in the upcoming years...

Sitting here in 2023, watching it again after a long time and still can’t get over how great this show opening was. This was a masterpiece! 🎉🇮🇱
Same for me, before the virus the world was a bit more normal than nowadays.
Me too😊
Meee tooo😍
completely agree. it felt like a huge party, wasn't boring for one second.
it also very much reflected Israel. who ever was in charge of the music is a genius
Now you can officially call it: the Olympics of singing and performing
*Paralympics

@Fat Earther
How is it abelist? The Paralympics of song is inclusive of the disabled. They are being inclusive.
Israel really could do their job. This is one of the best opening ceremony ever.
It was the most expensively priced tickets ever. Oh Vey
But they did give out free tickets for the stadium to be full
@@omark4649 how much did they cost?
@@bernarda7710 "Tickets for the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest to be held in Tel Aviv in May have not yet gone on sale - but prices revealed on Tuesday are much higher than those for last year's event in Lisbon.
The cheapest ticket for the international song competition is 350 shekels (slightly less than $100) for a hall seat for a semi-final rehearsal, and the most expensive one is 2,000 shekels ($552)"
Harretz News channel Israel
"And this week, there were reports that Israel intends to refuse entry to foreigners who it believes might be planning to disrupt the live Eurovision broadcasts - aired across 50 countries to an audience of 189 million people last year - to denounce the government's treatment of Palestinians.
The long-awaited tickets for the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv will finally go on sale in the coming days, with the prices for the grand final ranging from NIS 1,500 (approx. $415) to NIS 2,000 ($550) per ticket. In contrast, tickets for the grand final in 2018, when the competition was held in Portugal, ranged from €35 ($40) to €299 ($330).
Oh wow
This is not your first time watching this, are you? 🤣🙏🙏 Best opening ever!
Same
Hahaha yea
Not even the 20th
Not the 1st time seeing this comment either 😂
Am I the only one who have seen this 10000 times?? I fuckin’ love it!!!!!!!!
You are not the only one :)
Me too!!!! It the best opening ever!
1.000.000 th time. You are not alone.
must.... replay.... 😵
I watched it Everyday. It’s amazing
You're not the only one 😁 Sorry, Sergey Lazarev
This is one of the best openings ever!
👍
And 2016 with Mäns
And one of the best shows ever
🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱♥️♥️♥️♥️
No, the greatest one is 2012 esc
*_This is actually my favourite part:_*_ everyone cheers for every country ❤️_
👍
Such a difference when u compare ir to football actually!
Except for Palestine :v
@@civertron9784 is that even a country? Can you find it for me on Google maps?
civertron right they also forgot Narnia and neverland 😫
One of the most outstanding openings to a Eurovision EVER!
@Dadi Muss Los Germany 2011 is one of my least favourite :-/
Azerbaijan 2012 also
Also Sweden 2016, but still 2019 was way better
דפנה גרינבלום I liked Sweden’s one because it’s unique but Israel’s my favorite
I'm crying and I have no answer why, this is the mosts beautiful opening in ESC history!
Gatis Timofejevs yes it is :)
Eurovision is very important and amazing for us!
100%
Still the best opening and flag parade to date.
With 2016 😍
@@angelamores9448 2016 is close second, in my opinion. 2019 is still the best, as of 2022.
@@angelamores9448 in 2016 there wasnt even flags lol just random particles, isnt it supposed to be a FLAG parade
@@angelamores9448 The build up with the lights in 2016 at the start of the flag parade was brilliant after that it was just mediocre
Israel has definitely set a new bar for Eurovision productions
Sweden 2016 was still my favorite host. But Israel was good too.
Oh yes definitely Israel done a really great job!
This year bored me.
If they get different hosts it would have been amazing! Sorry not sorry but the hosts they had were really cringe worthy with trying to be funny etc.
Theallin1girl // DeKipVanIda especially Assi.
As an audience from outside Europe where my country never even joins Eurovision, I can tell, No country takes Eurovision hosting more seriously than Israel.
@Dadi Muss Los I watched it, it's nothing. The host performance in 2011 was so mehh'd.
@Dadi Muss Los 2019, from Semi to Grand Final, all are well-prepared.
Sweden 2016 is the best for me I just loveeee Petra and Måns.
I think Sweden takes it extremely serious...Same with Denmark 2014 and Portugal 2018.
toot-toot mcbumersnazzle
Love Love Peace Peace
I can't remember time when Eurovision was so good as this year.. Israel you had done a great job 👏👏👏
Jovana Best show ever
thanks
Besides Madonna, yes for sure!
@@maritvdhoek Oh yes, Madonna was there 😂
@@TheJovana555 hahaha love that comment😂
THIS IS THE BEST OPENING I'VE EVER SEEN
I love how they done the flags with the spinning lights. Looked amazing !
200 (:
The best opening ceremony so far. Israel can be so proud!
Andrzej Kłak what about Germany 2011?
@@Loettl I don't remember it anymore :D I must rewatch it.
I’m sure they’re proud. I love it
3 contests followed this so far and nothing even comes close to this amazing opening…the best ever. ❤❤❤
This is absolute cinematography. I don't think anything can top 2019 Eurovision opening.
Loved the idea of a Eurovision airport, with flight attendants everywhere ✈️ as well as one of the best flag parades ever 👏🏻
Flight ESC 2019 to Tel Aviv ready for landing 🛬
2020: I hope the flag parade theme will be Eurovision seaport or Eurovision ship arriving at the Port of Rotterdam, will be one of the best in the 2020s...
@@a.m.rifkia.3rd493 that was exactly my idea too haha! That would be mega awesome, and then with Duncan Laurence piloting the Eurovision (Cruise) ship with all the finalists in the Grand Final
If you're trying to make someone a Eurovision fan and impress with the production, this is the opening to show. 😁
Definitely best opening ceremony ever. Great job!
Jannik
Yes Sir!!! 👍😍😍

Thank you!
@@ido1061 It's true. This was the best ESC of the last few years!
Lots of Love for Israel
@@thedatroxde thank you
Yes they have
Lets hope the Netherlands will also be amazing
back after the 2022 final, and I must say this (2019) still has the best Eurovision flag parade ever. I hope 2023 will have something with similar quality.
Not expecting much from the uk either
I always rewatch 2015, 2016 and 2019 flag parades. Nothing can beat these years.
@@AntoniaXx. and you're right, it doesn't give me much hype either.
and in the end, THEY DID!
Tribute to Ofra Haza was soooooo great!
I don't see that as a tribute. Im Nin Alu was like 10 seconds and over. It should have been a real tribute
Best opening ever of Eurovision. Prove me wrong.
Small country, big show! well done, Israel! one of the best Eurovision ever! kululu kululu! Kapara Aleichem!
Em, if you were also in the arena you would find that the it was 4 times smaller than it looks on TV. They used panoramic zoomed out angles to make it look MASSIVE!
It really wasn't.
@@SG-lp6mf
I'm sure of that but for a small country like this, I think it's quite good.
S G actually it wasn’t huge but it was enough for having a great show (I was there and I met two of the products of the Israeli team that was with meets)
Netta *
Capara aliha
1:30 that instrumental of "Hallelujah" brought me to tears... one of the most majestic grand final openings ever
Rotterdam and Turin had an amazing flag parade but, Tel Aviv still remains as the best Flag Parade in Eurovision History! 🇮🇱👏🏼
Turin was similar to Lisbon. You'd expect some progress along the years.
Too bad the rest was bad to worst...at least the flag parade was decent
Sweden 2016 >>
Yeeessss😍😍😍
FAX
The most successful Eurovision event I've ever seen.
@Erwin - still prefer israel's.
Does anyone remember production at such a high and fantastic level? Because I do not remember. The best Eurovision ever! Congratulations Israel
Production was good with the opening but it definetly wasn't good with performances. There were many mistakes on cameras and ear pieces. Just look at Estonia's performance.
Eurovision 2015 in Austria had a better opening ceremony
Best Eurovision with Icelandic representatives and Madonna protesting?!
@@eliasilonen867 yeah well they can't control the participants..Besides Estonia's act I completely agree!! very very good production.
Comon... Sweden 2016 is the grandfather of all openings
These are probably the best 10 minutes of television ever broadcasted. 🎉
The best eurovision opening
still, the best eurovision ever. love from Indonesia
Has to be one of the best Eurovision openings I’ve ever seen 🤩

The best Opening from esc ever
Best Eurovision for a while now
Even though my country did a great job (the Netherlands) hosting etc but this still remains the best flag parade
You did your best with covid and did a much better job than Italy.
@@ponyclub3198 well yeah, I agree haha
The flag parade was epic. Israel was such a great host.
This is by far the most impressive opening to date. The production level is incomparable by any previous standards. Israel really nailed it this time and set the bar higher than ever. This is one to remember for years ahead!
Dana's performance WAS AMAZING. Israel indid does the best TV
They weren’t lying when they said the show is gonna be memorable.
The best ever
This is how you do a flag parade.
You hear me RAI?
אפילו לא טרחתי לצפות השנה כי ידעתי שזה מכור. צפיתי ביוטיוב וזה נראה ממש כמו משחק בינגו בבית אבות. גועל נפש, איפה הם ואיפה אנחנו
Everything was perfect thank you Tel Aviv.
Really creative opening! The best one so far!
@@tomasferreira4245 hahahaha that one was so boring. 2016 is unbeatable
Best flag parade ever
BEST OPENING EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR !
The production level us CRAZY
Watching this in 2022 and tearing up at what the world used to be. I miss these days, it just isn't the same anymore, since 2020.
This Opening was fire🔥
one big mix of the 4th elements :D!
Yeah yeah fire
The Best Opening Ceremony in History of ESC Ever.
Eurovision 2016 what? THIS IS HUNDREDS TIMES BETTER
Definitely
True
BEST OPENING EVER.
Totally.
And best postcards ever as well!
I just saw this because I read lots of comments about this being the best Eurovision ever after the Miss Universe 2021. Wow, they are right! ISRAEL REALLY KNOWS HOW TO THROW GREAT PARTIES!
🇮🇱
I love when Dana International gets on stage!
Honestly that part sold it. The opening wouldn’t be Israel without her
esc best show ever ✨
Still, the best opening in the history ❤
Still the best opening and concept ever. Turin’s opening and whole concept of the show was really outdated, especially the postcards. I like this opening because it looks clean and well organised.
also Italy chose the drone as their concept which is actually an Israeli invention 🤣
this was the best flag parade ever
This has to be the best flag parade in eurovision history.
The best opening show everrrrr
Still watching in 2023 , the best Flag Parade 😍
The Best Flag OPENING ever
I remember how the Israel jury in 2017 sadly annonced that thay couldn't particiate anymore because their tv-station had decided to stop... Well, we are all very happy they fixed the problem. What a show. What an opening. Well done, these israeli people has skills. Go win again please :-)
Thx! We will do our best to win again 😉
People didn’t understand - there was no problem at all. The old channel closed for a new one. It was known and planned
The best Eurovision opening so far!!!
