Sweden: Melodifestivalen 2024 final had the worst TV ratings in history!
The Final of Melodifestivalen 2024, was broadcast by SVT and SVT Play last Saturday. We now know that Marcus & Martinus will represent Sweden at Eurovision Song Contest 2024 to be held in Malmö, Sweden. The song “Unforgettable“ placed first in both the International Jury and the Public Vote!
A few days after the grand finale of the contest, MMS has learned the latest audience data for this year’s edition of Melodifestivalen 2024.
The final of Melodifestivalen 2024 was watched by an average of 2.786.000 spectators in its 122-minute duration.In terms of audience share, the grand final swept the board again reaching a very high 72.43%.
Compared to the 2023 edition, the final of the contest lost 633.000 spectators and 10.42 points in audience share (in 2023 the final was seen by 3.419.000 spectators and an 82.85% share of the screen ).
Historically, it is the worst audience ratings in terms of spectators of a Melodifestivalen finale since audiences began to be measured in 1994. It is important to note at this point in the analysis that the decline in the consumption of linear television in favour of platforms has a lot of weight in this decrease in viewers and increase in share that has been happening for several years in Melodifestivalen and Swedish television.
