Belarus is final UK Eurovision party act

Ruslan leaves for London

The final name on the UK Eurovision Preview Party has now been announced and it is none other than Ruslan Aleknho from Belarus. He is the ninth 2008 Eurovision Song Contest participant to be confirmed for the 1000 strong party at London's scala.

Ruslan is looking to become the second artist to take Belarus through to the Eurovision Song Contest final after Dima Koldun achieved their first ever final participation last year. He will travel to London to join the fun in two days time at the biggest pre-Eurovision party of the year.

In total, 12 of this year's Eurovision Song Contest artists, including the representatives from the United Kingdom, Ireland and Bulgaria will be on hand to meet the crowd on Friday night, well over 1/4 of this year's competing acts and they are coming from all corners of the continent, from Iceland to Armenia and Norway to Malta.
