Iceland: The results of the second semi-final of Söngvakeppnin 2024!

Tonight was the second semi-final of Söngvakeppnin 2024, the national process through which the representative of the island of ice and fire is sworn in for the Eurovision Song Contest. This year, however, the country’s participation is not considered a sure thing, as the issue of the conflict in the Middle East between Israel and Palestine and the former’s participation in the contest is a point of friction in Iceland’s public sphere. The second semi-final of Söngvakeppnin 2024 took place at Truenorth Studio, in Reykjavik.

The second night was hosted by Ragnhildur Steinunn Jónsdóttir, Sigurður Þorri Gunnarsson and Unnsteinn Manuel Stefánsson.

The participants

Five participants competed for the two tickets to the Grand Final of Söngvakeppnin 2024 on March 2.

1. Sigga Ózk – Um allan alheiminn / Into the Atmosphere

1. Heiðrún Anna – Þjakaður af ást

1. Bashar Murad – Vestrið villt / Wild West

1. MAIAA – Fljúga burt

1. Hera Björk – Við förum hærra / Scared of Heights

With the completion of the competitive part, the lines opened for the voting of the TV audience. With the voting completed, the two songs that qualified for the final are:

1. Hera Björk – Við förum hærra / Scared of Heights
2. Bashar Murad – Vestrið villt / Wild West

At this point, it should be recalled that the jury will be asked to select a fifth finalist as a wild card among the six songs that did not qualify directly from the two semi-finals.
