SVT’s official press release reads:
“When Melodifestivalen 2025 starts, viewers will be greeted by a completely new look, but this year’s stage is basically a re-use. When SVT’s team, consisting of set designer Viktor Brattström and lighting and video designer Fredrik Stormby, created last year’s stage, the starting point was that the design and construction would work over time.
Recycling is this year’s watchword, but some new features will still be included in this year’s stage design. Just like last year, large parts of the scenography are made up of LED surfaces, and completely new video content has been developed to fill the walls and floors, thereby creating a completely new feeling. The two angled LED walls with integrated fixtures and the 72 square meter LED floor offer opportunities to create unique acts and a spectacular experience for both audience and viewers.
Like last year, lighting and video designer Fredrik Stormby is behind the expressions in the LED screens.
Also new this year is that the walkway on the parquet floor, which is used for the “winners’ walk” and as a playing area for the program hosts, will be expanded and become a natural place in the middle of the sea of audience.”
