The Eurovision Song Contest 2013 will be the 58th annual Eurovision Song Contest. The contest will take place in Malmö, Sweden, following Loreen's win in the 2012 Contest with the song "Euphoria". This is the fifth time that Sweden will host the Contest, the last time being in 2000. Sveriges Television (SVT) chose Malmö Arena as the venue following the consideration of several venues within Sweden. The dates set for the two semi-finals are 14 May and 16 May 2013, with the final taking place on the evening of 18 May 2013.[9] There will be one host for this contest which was announced on 28 January as comedian Petra Mede.[2] Thirty-nine countries will participate, including Armenia, who were last represented in 2011.[10][11] Bosnia and Herzegovina, Portugal, Slovakia and Turkey have announced their withdrawal from the 2013 Contest.[12][13][14][15] The design of the contest is built around the theme "We are one" – highlighting equality and unity of all the participating countries alongside the cultural diversity and influence of each participant.[16]

Locations of the three candidate cities
Malmö Arena

On 8 July 2012, Swedish broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT) announced that Malmö Arena in Malmö would be the host venue for the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest. This will be the fifth time after 1975, 1985, 1992 and 2000 that the competition will be held in Sweden and the second time, after 1992, that it will be held in Malmö.

Malmö, in the southern province of Scania, is Sweden's third largest city by population after Stockholm and Gothenburg, and is one of the largest cities in Scandinavia. It is also a part of the Øresund Region, and Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is only a trainride of about 30 minutes away. Malmö is the seat of the Malmö Municipality and the capital of Skåne County. The administrative entity for most of the city is Malmö Municipality, which has 303,873 inhabitants in eight different localities, with 30% being of foreign origin (either born outside of Sweden or having both parents born abroad).[17]. The total population of the urban area was 280,415 in December 2010.[18]

Bidding phase

On the night of the final for the 2012 Contest, the chief executive of SVT, Eva Hamilton, stated to the Swedish media that various venues in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö were being considered for hosting the 2013 Contest.[19]

One alternative put forward in the Expressen, was to hold the competition at three different venues – the semi-finals in Gothenburg and Malmö, and the final in Stockholm.[20] This proposal was dismissed as unfeasible by SVT, which declared that the contest would be hosted in only one city.[21]

On 20 June 2012, it was announced that Gothenburg had withdrawn from the bidding process due to the city being the host of the Göteborg Horse Show in late April 2013. There were also concerns about the availability of hotel rooms due to a variety of other events taking place in the same time frame as the Eurovision Song Contest.[22]

SVT had expressed the desire to host the contest at a slightly smaller venue than previous years, and this was a factor in the choice of Malmö Arena as the host venue.[23] The executive producer for the 2013 Contest, Martin Österdahl, told Swedish press that he did not like the decisions made by previous hosts to hold the contest in larger arenas, stating that he and SVT wants the 2013 Contest to be "more close and personal".[23][24] SVT has also claimed that the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) wanted the 2013 Contest to be "smaller" due to the escalating costs of previous contests.[24]

The following candidate cities had provisionally reserved venues and hotel rooms, as part of their bids to host the 2013 Contest.[25] On 8 July 2012, Malmö Arena was confirmed as the host venue for the contest.

Malmö Arena is Sweden's fourth biggest indoor arena, after Friends Arena, Tele2 Arena and Ericsson Globe, all located in Stockholm.

City Venue Notes
Stockholm Friends Arena Opened in October 2012; hosted the final of Melodifestivalen in March 2013.
Malmö Malmö Arena The venue has served as the host of the Melodifestivalen semi-finals for the past four years.
Gothenburg Scandinavium The venue hosted the 1985 Contest.
Swedish Exhibition Centre Withdrew on 20 June 2012.[22]

Format

The combination of televoting and jury voting results underwent changes that were detailed in the official rules for the 2013 contest.[26][27] Each member of a respective nation's jury will be required to rank every song, except that of their own country. The voting results from each member of a particular nation's jury will be combined to produce an overall ranking from first to last place. Likewise, the televoting results will also be interpreted as a full ranking, taking into account the full televoting result rather than just the top 10. The combination of the jury's full ranking and the televote's full ranking will produce an overall ranking of all competing entries. The song that scores the highest overall rank will receive 12 points, while the tenth-best ranked song will receive 1 point. It was announced in the official Media Handbook that an official app would also be available for voters to vote via during the contest.[28]

Official sponsors of the broadcast are the main Swedish-Finnish telecommunication company TeliaSonera, and the German cosmetics company Schwarzkopf.[29][30] Also makeup company IsaDora, supermarket ICA and Tetra Pak will be the sponsors of the competition.[31][32]

Sarah Dawn Finer will also appear in both semifinals and the final in segments presenting Sweden for the viewers as the comical character Lynda Woodruff.[33] "Lynda" presented the votes for Sweden at the previous contest in Baku.[33] Footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović was revealed on 28 April to be part of the opening segment of the Eurovision final, in a pre-recorded message he will welcome the viewers to his home city of Malmö.[34] 2011 Swedish entrant Eric Saade will be the green room host during the final evening of the contest.[35]

Semi-final allocation draw

The draw that determined the semi-final allocation was held on 17 January 2013 at the Malmö City Hall.[36] Prior to the allocation draw, on 7 November 2012 it was announced that, due to their geographical proximity with Malmö, Denmark and Norway would perform in different semi-finals in order to maximise the availability of tickets for visitors from both countries. A draw at the EBU headquarters determined that Denmark will perform in the first semi-final, while Norway will perform in the second semi-final.[37] The EBU also allocated Israel to the second semi-final after a request from the delegation in order to avoid complications with a national holiday coinciding with the date of the first semifinal.[38] The remaining participating countries, excluding the automatic finalists (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom), were split into five pots, based on voting patterns from the previous nine years. From these pots, 15 (in addition to Denmark) were allocated to compete in the first semi-final on 14 May 2013 and 15 (in addition to Norway and Israel) were allocated to compete in the second semi-final on 16 May 2013.[39]

The pots were calculated by the televoting partner Digame and were as follows:[38]

Pot 1 Pot 2 Pot 3 Pot 4 Pot 5

Running order

Unlike previous years, the running order will not be decided by the drawing of lots, but instead by the producers, with the aim of making the shows more exciting and ensuring that all contestants have a chance to stand out, preventing entries that are too similar cancelling each other out.[37] The decision elicited mixed reactions from both fans of the contest and participating broadcasters.[40][41][42][43]

The running order for the semi-finals was released on 28 March 2013.[44] The running order for the final will be determined by 17 May 2013 at 3:00 CEST.[45] An additional allocation draw will occur for the final with each finalist nation drawing to perform either in the first or second half of the final.[45] The qualifying countries from the semi-finals will draw for their allocation during the semi-final winners press conferences following each semi-final, while the Big Five countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) will draw for their allocation during their first individual press conferences on 15 May 2013.[45][46] As the host country, the running order position for Sweden in the final was exclusively determined by a draw during the heads of delegation meeting on 18 March 2013.[45] Sweden was drawn to perform 16th in the final.[45]

Graphic design

On 17 January 2013, at the semi-final allocation draw, The EBU revealed the graphic design, created by Gothenburg-based branding agency Happy F&B for the 2013 contest, featuring a butterfly and slogan "We Are One". The butterfly features an array of colours and textures, it also represents something small which can start powerful and big movements, a phenomenon known as the butterfly effect, indicating that a flap from one butterfly can start a hurricane.[47]

SVT confirmed on 19 February 2013 that the postcard films, used to introduce each song in the contest, will this year feature each artist in their respective country, to give the viewer a personal insight of each competing participant. This breaks with recent tradition of the postcards often containing short segments of life within either the host city or country of the contest.[48]

National host broadcaster

On 11 July 2012, show producer, Christer Björkman, advised the public not to buy tickets for the 2013 Contest that are currently in circulation and instead wait for tickets to be released through official channels. Björkman said that official tickets had not yet been released, as necessary decisions over the stage and seating plans had not yet been made.[49] Björkman also gave reassurance that accommodation would be available, as while the organizers had booked a large quantity of hotel rooms, some may be made available to the general public.[49] On 21 November 2012, SVT officially announced the launch of ticket sales.[50]

On 17 October 2012, executive producer, Martin Österdahl, told Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter that SVT plans for the 2013 Contest to have only one presenter for the entire contest, unlike previous years where there were up to three presenters per show. The last time there was just one presenter was in the 1995 Contest, in Dublin, Ireland when the solo host was Mary Kennedy.[51][52] Petra Mede was announced as the host for the 2013 contest on 28 January 2013.[53]

Further information: OGAE

OGAE (French: Organisation Générale des Amateurs de l'Eurovision, English: General Organisation of Eurovision Fans) is one of the two major international fan club networks of the Eurovision Song Contest. It has branches throughout Europe.[73] Although the Eurovision Song Contest started in 1956, OGAE began in 1984 in Finland.[74] All countries that take part or have already taken part in the Eurovision Song Contest can have their own OGAE and most of them do. All other countries around the world are united under OGAE Rest of World, created in 2004. Every year, the organisation puts together four non-profit competitions (Song Contest, Second Chance Contest, Video Contest and Home Composed Song Contest).[73]

In what has become an annual tradition for the OGAE fan clubs, a voting poll was opened allowing members from thirty-nine respective clubs to vote for their favourite songs of the 2013 contest. Below is the top five overall results, after all the votes had been cast.[75]
