250 construction workers have been working hard to get the structure of the Eurovision stage ready for the contests. If this year's hopefuls are anything like Ruslana in 2004 they'll be needing reinforcement!
According to Set Designer Ilias Ledakis, work inside the Olympic Indoor Hall will be completed in the coming days.
The stage combines cutting-edge technology with ancient Greek theatre, and is being built by experts from Germany, the UK and Greece.
During the 2004 Olympics, the hall hosted gymnastics and basketball finals.
