Format of Melodifestivalen 2025
30 acts participate in Melfest 2025 split into 5 heats of six acts each. The number 1 and 2 placed acts from each heat qualify directly to the grand final in Stockholm, and the three lowest placed acts are finished in the competition. This make up for the first 10 acts qualifying for the grand final
The number 3 placed entries of each heat will have their fate decided in a Final Qualification held in connection with heat 5. The five songs will compete for 2 tickets to the grand final decided by the percentage of votes each entry got in their heat plus the amount of votes they get in the Final Qualification.
12 songs compete in the Grand Final of Melodifestivalen held in Strawberry Arena in Stockholm on 8 March.
Melodifestivalen is hosted by Kristina ”Keyyo” Petrushina and Edvin Törnblom.
Who is your favourite in this heat? Are any of these acts the one you want to see go all the way to Eurovision? Let us know in the comments below.
Klara and Nomi to Direckt Final.
Nomi Tales sounds promising!
I hope she can deliver it live, if so I could see this going places.
Rooting for the cowboy!
I enjoyed Waterloo 2.0!
Snippets don’t do songs justice but it does sound stronger than rhe first one.
Of the bat I say Klara and Eric to final.
These songs are also a bit mediocre; sorry Sweden :/ Anyway, still prefer another singer’s Victory; rather than Mans Zelmerlöw
