Have been trying to work this out for the last hour-plus, about to give up - doesn anyone out there know where this place is, please ....

"A comic duo from this city hoped to shake up an uninspiring music contest with an act that harks back to a more idealistic era. Its 3000 years of history have seen invasions, explorations and revolutions, as well as the signing of a still-controversial treaty, and the turbulent times have continued into the 21st century. Someone special grew up nearby and went to university here, but made his mark in other places. Name the city"

The four pictures are: two guys, one with a loud-hailer in his hand (wearing a lime green shirt) and the other chap has got a check jacket over a red shirt, and is holding a red guitar; two lemons, presumably hanging from a tree, a very modern style stadium or shopping centre and lastly, a "statue" of an eagle with its wings open, on a plinth that says E. pluribus.

Can you help, please? Many thanks, Chox.,

I sort of get the feeling that the "uninspiring music contest" may be Eurovision ....

Who are the comic duo referred to in the clues

noodles

The comic duo are Homens da Luta, who performed this year's Portugese Eurovision effort. They are the guys with the loud hailer and red guitar in the first photo.
