Sweden: Melodifestivalen is about to alter significantly!
Anders Wistbacka, Melodifestivalen‘s Head of Project, indicated that the method of running the popular TV event, via which Sweden’s representative for the Eurovision Song Contest is chosen, is likely to change shortly.
There have been some modifications made to the competition recently. Specifically, it was determined last year that the presenter position will only be held by one person going forward. As previously mentioned, Carina Berg will be assuming this role this year. It has also been disclosed that a new, fifth event will shortly take the place of the semi-final. Subsequent announcements on this modification will be made.
However, Wistbacka promises further updates and adjustments in addition to current ones. In more detail, he said:
We’ll have a lot of participants in different types of roles. We’re going to redesign the program a little bit with new elements here and there.
You ‘ll find out soon.
