Details regarding MGP 2024, the national final that will determine Norway’s entry in the forthcoming Eurovision Song Contest—which will take place in May in Malmö, Sweden—were disclosed by Stig Karlsen, the head of the country’s delegation to the contest.

Initially held at the Marienlyst building in Oslo in 1960, Melodi Grand Prix is the most prominent music competition in Norway. The organizers decided that the three semi-finals of this year’s competition will take place at the same location in celebration of this occasion. The MGP 2024 semi-finals are scheduled to take place on January 13, 20 and 27 respectively.

There will be eighteen competitors in total for this year’s MGP, all of whom have already been chosen by a committee specifically appointed by NRK. Six entries will make up each semi-final, and three of those will advance to the final, which will be held at the Trondheim Spektrum on February 3.

The organizers guarantee a top-notch lineup featuring a variety of musical styles. On Friday, January 5, at a related event in Oslo, the artists who will participate in this year’s MGP are scheduled to be unveiled.

The pre-sales for the 2024 Melodi Grand Prix are set to start on Tuesday, November 14, 2023, and ticket sales will begin on Thursday, November 16, 2023.
