Sweden: This is what the Melodifestivalen 2022 Stage looks like!

After the completion of the construction of the Melodifestivalen 2022 stage, at Avicii Arena in Stockholm, SVT unveiled its design. In the past, the stage design was revealed to the public long before the live shows and long before any construction work was to take place.

This year, SVT hadn’t published any CGI render of the stage before it was actually completed, but streamed the entire construction process, live in realtime on SVT Play, allowing the fans to see the stage gradually being built up.

The full CGS render but also real photos of how the final stage looks like, can be seen in a post at the official Melodifestivalen Twitter account of SVT, however, SVT has not revealed the technical specifications of the stage yet.
