Hi
Could you help me with the use of apostrophes?
In this case," I went to a Maneskin concert , a young band formed by Eurovision song contest winners in 2022".
Do I need Maneskin's and Eurovision's with apostrophe?
Generally, must artist take the apostrophe when you refer to their work, performance, cd etc ?
Thank you

A Maneskin concert does not need an apostrophe. Maneskin is functioning as an adjective describing the noun concert.
The Eurovision Song Contest also has no apostrophe. This is the full name of the contest.
Saying they were formed by the contest sounds strange. Do you mean they were formed for the contest? The band was created in order to compete in the contest?

Sure!
✅ Maneskin concert — no apostrophe (name as adjective)
✅ Maneskin’s performance — apostrophe shows possession
Use apostrophes only when showing ownership, not when the name just describes something.
