The Eurovision Song Contest 2024 is the 68th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. It is taking place in Malmö, Sweden, following the country's victory at the 2023 contest with the song "Tattoo" by Loreen. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT), the contest is being held at the Malmö Arena, and consists of two semi-finals on 7 and 9 May, and a final on 11 May 2024.[1] The three live shows are presented by Petra Mede and Malin Åkerman, with Mede having previously taken on the role in 2013 and 2016.

Thirty-seven countries are participating in the contest, with Luxembourg returning 31 years after its last participation in 1993, while Romania opted not to participate after doing so the previous year. The inclusion of Israel among the participants in the context of the ongoing Israel–Hamas war was met with criticism, and additional security measures were put in place for the event.

The 2024 contest is taking place in Malmö, Sweden, following the country's victory at the 2023 edition with the song "Tattoo", performed by Loreen. It is the seventh time Sweden hosts the contest, having previously done so in 1975, 1985, 1992, 2000, 2013, and 2016. The selected venue is the 15,500-seat Malmö Arena, the second largest multi-purpose indoor arena in Sweden, which serves as a venue for handball and floorball matches, concerts, and a diversity of other events, noted for having already hosted the Eurovision Song Contest in 2013.[2] Malmö Live accommodated the "Turquoise Carpet" event on 5 May 2024, where the contestants and their delegations[a] were presented before accredited press and fans, as well as the opening and closing ceremonies;[4][5] the venue will also offer screenings of the final.[6]

The host city organises side events in conjunction with the contest. Folkets Park [sv] is the location of the Eurovision Village, which hosts performances by contest participants[b] and local artists, as well as screenings of the live shows for the general public and the OGAE Euro Fan Café at Amiralen [sv] (originally planned to be at Moriska paviljongen [sv]).[5][8][9] Malmö Live is the location of the EuroClub, which hosts the official after-parties and private performances by contest participants.

A "Eurovision Street" has been established in Friisgatan [sv], between Folkets Park and Triangeln [sv].[5][10] Its programme would have included music performances, which were ultimately transferred to the Eurovision Village for security reasons,[11][12] also following the withdrawal of several artists due to Israel's participation in the contest.[13][14] To celebrate the 50th anniversary of ABBA's – and Sweden's first – victory at the contest in 1974 with "Waterloo", a special ABBA World exhibition is taking place at Södergatan [sv] between 29 April and 12 May 2024.[15]

Bidding phase

Immediately after Sweden's win in the 2023 contest, the first cities to voice their interest in hosting the 2024 edition were Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, the three largest cities in the country, as well as the ones to have previously hosted the contest. Besides these, a number of other cities also expressed their intention to bid in the days that followed the 2023 victory, namely Eskilstuna, Jönköping, Örnsköldsvik, Partille and Sandviken.[16]

SVT set a deadline of 12 June 2023 for interested cities to formally apply.[17] Stockholm and Gothenburg announced their bids on 7 and 10 June respectively,[18][17] followed by Malmö and Örnsköldsvik on 13 June.[19][20] Shortly before the closing of the application period, SVT revealed that it had received several bids,[21] later clarifying that they had come from these four cities.[22][23] Prior to this announcement, Sandviken and Jönköping had already declared to have opted out.[24][25] On 7 July, Gothenburg and Örnsköldsvik's bids were eliminated.[26] Later that day, the EBU and SVT announced Malmö as the host city.[1][27]

Participating countries

Eurovision Song Contest 2024 – Participation summaries by country

Eligibility for participation in the Eurovision Song Contest requires a national broadcaster with an active EBU membership capable of receiving the contest via the Eurovision network and broadcasting it live nationwide. The EBU issues invitations to participate in the contest to all members.

On 5 December 2023, the EBU announced that 37 countries would participate in the 2024 contest. Luxembourg returned to the contest 31 years after its last participation in 1993. Romania, which participated in the 2023 contest, was provisionally announced as not participating in 2024.[47][48] This was confirmed on 25 January 2024.[49][50]

The contest features two returning artists: Natalia Barbu and Hera Björk, who previously represented Moldova in 2007 and Iceland in 2010, respectively.[51][52]

Other countries

Active EBU member broadcasters in Andorra,[91] Bosnia and Herzegovina,[92] Monaco[93] and Slovakia[94] confirmed non-participation, prior to the announcement of the participants list by the EBU. For financial reasons, Romania was not included in the list of participants published on 5 December 2023. Its broadcaster TVR remained in talks with the EBU beyond the deadline regarding its 2024 participation.[47] On 25 January 2024, TVR opted not to participate.[50]

Production

The Eurovision Song Contest 2024 is produced by the Swedish national broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT). The core team consists of Ebba Adielsson as executive producer, Christel Tholse Willers [sv] as deputy executive producer, Tobias Åberg as executive in charge of production, Johan Bernhagen as executive line producer, Christer Björkman as contest producer, and Per Blankens [sv] as TV producer. Additional production personnel includes head of production David Wessén, head of legal Mats Lindgren, head of media Madeleine Sinding-Larsen, and executive assistant Linnea Lopez.[95][96][97]

Edward af Sillén and Daniel Réhn [sv] wrote the script for the live shows' hosting segments and the opening and interval acts,[98] while Robin Hofwander, Daniel Jelinek and Fredrik Bäcklund will serve as multi-camera directors.[99] Background music for the shows was composed by Eirik Røland and Johan Nilsson.[100][101] A majority of the production personnel for 2024 previously worked in the previous three editions of the contest held in Sweden: 2000, 2013 and 2016.

Malmö Municipality contributed SEK 30 million (approximately 2.5 million) to the budget of the contest.[102][103]

Slogan and visual design

On 14 November 2023, the EBU announced that "United by Music", the slogan of the 2023 contest, would be retained for 2024 and future editions.[104] The accompanying theme art for 2024, named "The Eurovision Lights", was unveiled on 14 December. Designed by Stockholm-based agencies Uncut and Bold Scandinavia, it is based on simple, linear gradients inspired by vertical lines found on auroras and sound equalisers, and was built with adaptability across different formats taken into account.[105][106][107]

Stage design

The stage in the arena

The stage design for the 2024 contest, revealed in December 2023, was devised by German production designer Florian Wieder, who had previously designed the sets of six previous contests – the most recent being in 2021. Lighting and screen content was designed by Swedish designer Fredrik Stormby. The stage features five movable LED cubes, floors and a backdrop screen along with other lighting, video and stagecraft technology, all set around a cross-shaped centre, with the aim of "creating a unique 360-degree experience" for viewers.[108] The green room is placed behind the backdrop screen, in a similar fashion to the stages for the 2010 and 2011 contests.[109] Construction of the stage began on 2 April and concluded on 25 April.[110]

Postcards

The "postcards" are short video introductions shown on television whilst the stage is being prepared for the next entry. Filmed from February to May 2024, the postcards are composed of footage shot by the participating artists through "selfie-mode", introducing the artists themselves and the country they represent. Archival footage of two of the country's previous entries is also used in each postcard.[111][112]

Presenters

Malin Åkerman and Petra Mede, presenters of the 2024 contest

Swedish comedian and television host Petra Mede and Swedish-American actress Malin Åkerman were announced as the presenters of the 2024 contest on 5 February 2024. Mede had previously hosted both the 2013 and 2016 editions (solo and with Måns Zelmerlöw, respectively), as well as the 2015 special anniversary programme Eurovision Song Contest's Greatest Hits alongside Graham Norton.[115] The "Turquoise Carpet" and opening ceremony events were hosted by Elecktra and Tia Kofi,[116] while Jovan Radomir moderates the contest's press conferences.[117]

Security

In November 2023, the production team at SVT stated its intention to increase security measures and to keep in contact with Malmö's police authority during the contest, citing a tense climate of protest amid Israel's participation despite its offensive on Gaza.[118] This includes police reinforcement from Denmark and Norway, tightened cybersecurity, and a no-fly zone to prevent drone attacks,[119][120][121] as well as adjustments to the number of locations set to host side events. Through social media content, Israeli broadcaster Kan also expressed concerns over alleged antisemitism in Malmö, attributing this to the "Islamisation of Europe".[122] Additional measures were taken to protect the Israeli delegation, with the representative Eden Golan being escorted by Shin Bet agents in addition to local police officers following death threats directed at her via social media.[123] Shin Bet also advised Israeli citizens against travelling to Malmö and sent there a delegation, headed by its director Ronen Bar, to prevent potential threats against them.[124]

It has been noted that SVT's decision was made in the context of a high terroristic threat level in Sweden, with the Swedish Security Service (SÄPO) having raised the level from 3 to 4 out of 5 in August 2023, primarily in response to the 2023 Quran burnings in the country and prior to the Israel–Hamas war.[125] Concerns about the risk of terrorist attacks resurged in the wake of the Crocus City Hall attack outside Moscow on 22 March 2024.[122] In the event of an emergency, Malmö Municipality will provide accommodations in local schools and sports facilities as well as psychological support.[126][127]

Format

Voting system and contest structure

After the outcome of the 2023 contest, which saw Sweden win, despite Finland's lead in the televoting, sparked controversy among the audience, Norwegian broadcaster NRK began discussions with the EBU regarding a potential revision of the jury voting procedure. It was noted that Norwegian entries in recent years had been penalised by the juries, particularly in 2019 and 2023, when Norway finished in sixth and fifth place overall, respectively, despite coming first in 2019 and third in 2023 with the televote.[128] In an interview, the Norwegian head of delegation Stig Karlsen [no] discussed the idea of reducing the jury's weight on the final score, from the current 49.4%, to 40% or 30%.[129][130] No changes to the voting system were ultimately implemented in this regard.[131]

For 2024, the "Rest of the World" voting window is open for 24 hours before each show, as well as during each show. For participating countries, it is open after the last song is performed – as in previous years – in the semi-finals. In the final, it will be opened just before the first performance and will close 25 minutes after the last performance.[e][132] The automatic qualifiers – the host country and the "Big Five" – performed their entries in full during the semi-finals, in between the competing acts.[132] After an incident led the EBU to temporarily bar the Dutch representative from rehearsing, the opening of the "Rest of the World" voting window was indefinitely delayed for the final.[133]

Thirteen of the twenty-five open positions in the running order of the final will be subject to a "producer's choice" draw option, alongside six positions available each, for the first half and second half of the show. For those countries which draw the "producer's choice" category, the contest producers will be able to place that country anywhere in the running order.[134] The runtime of the final was initially planned to be reduced by approximately an hour.[135][136] This was ultimately not a priority, with the final planned to be shortened by a maximum of five minutes.[137]

The draw to determine the participating countries' semi-finals took place on 30 January 2024 at 19:00 CET, at the Malmö Town Hall [sv].[138][139] The thirty-one semi-finalists were divided over five pots, based on historical voting patterns, with the purpose of reducing the chance of bloc voting and increasing suspense in the semi-finals.[140][141] The draw also determined which semi-final each of the six automatic qualifiers – host country Sweden and "Big Five" countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) – would vote in and be required to broadcast. The ceremony was hosted by Pernilla Månsson Colt and Farah Abadi, and included the passing of the host city insignia from Steve Rotheram, the mayor of the Liverpool City Region and representative of previous host city Liverpool, to Katrin Stjernfeldt Jammeh, the mayor of Malmö Municipality.[141][142][139]

With the approval from the contest's reference group, Israel was allocated to the second semi-final following a request from Israeli broadcaster Kan, as the rehearsal date for the first semi-final coincided with Yom HaShoah.[143]

This semi-final was opened by former participants Eleni Foureira, Eric Saade and Chanel, who performed their respective competing songs – "Fuego" (Cyprus 2018), "Popular" (Sweden 2011) and "SloMo" (Spain 2022).[147] The interval acts included three-time winner for Ireland (1980, 1987 and 1992) Johnny Logan performing the 2012 Swedish winning entry "Euphoria",[148][149] and 2018 Swedish entrant Benjamin Ingrosso performing a medley of his songs "Look Who's Laughing Now", "Kite" and "Honey Boy".[150][149] According to a report by Aftonbladet, the original performer of "Euphoria", Loreen, was initially supposed to perform with Logan but ultimately decided against it.[151][152]

All thirty-six participating countries with jury and televote, as well as non-participating countries under an aggregated "Rest of the World" online vote, will vote in the final. The running order (R/O) of the host nation was determined by a random draw on 11 March during the annual meeting of heads of the participating delegations.[160] The running order for the remaining finalists was determined by the contest producers following the second semi-final.[161]

Detailed results

Semi-final 1

The ten qualifiers from the first semi-final were determined solely by televoting. All fifteen countries competing in the first semi-final voted, alongside Germany, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and the aggregated Rest of the World vote. The ten qualifying countries were announced in no particular order, and the full results will be published after the final has been held.

Semi-final 2

The ten qualifiers from the second semi-final were determined solely by televoting, with the exception of San Marino who were unable to provide a valid televote result and thus used the votes of their back-up jury.[citation needed] All sixteen countries competing in the second semi-final voted, alongside France, Italy and Spain, and the aggregated Rest of the World vote. The ten qualifying countries were announced in no particular order, and the full results of how each country voted will be published after the final has been held.

Broadcasts

All participating broadcasters may choose to have on-site or remote commentators providing insight and voting information to their local audience. While they must broadcast at least the semi-final they are voting in and the final, most broadcasters air all three shows with different programming plans. In addition, some non-participating broadcasters air the contest. The Eurovision Song Contest YouTube and TikTok channels provides international live streams with no commentary of all shows.

Marcel Bezençon Awards

The Marcel Bezençon Awards, organised since 2002 by Sweden's then-head of delegation and 1992 representative Christer Björkman, and winner of the 1984 contest Richard Herrey, honours songs in the contest's final.[348] The awards are divided into three categories: the Artistic Award, the Composers Award, and the Press Award.[349] The winners will be revealed shortly before the Eurovision final on 11 May.

Incidents and controversies

Israeli participation

Since the outbreak of the Israel–Hamas war on 7 October 2023, calls were made for Israel to be excluded from the contest on the grounds of the humanitarian crisis resulting from Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip;[353][354] this included protests and petitions directed at national broadcasters in a number of participating countries, notably in Finland,[355] Iceland[356] and Norway,[357] demanding that they withdraw or pressure the EBU to exclude Israel. The Icelandic broadcaster RÚV opted to decide over its participation on 11 March 2024, at the meeting among the heads of delegations of participating broadcasters,[358] ultimately confirming its presence.[52] No other broadcaster indicated its overt opposition to Israeli participation; however, in response to public calls in Slovenia, the country's broadcaster RTVSLO asked the EBU to hold extensive discussions with its members over the issue,[359][360] receiving no response.[361]

In late February 2024, multiple Israeli media reports stated that two songs had been shortlisted for consideration as the Israeli entry for the 2024 contest, titled "October Rain" and "Dance Forever", and that both had been submitted to the EBU for evaluation but were rejected for containing political lyrics.[362][363][364] Israeli broadcaster Kan confirmed these reports on 3 March, while also stating that it asked the writers of both songs to "make the necessary adjustments" in order for them to be eligible. The selected song, titled "Hurricane", was approved by the EBU on 7 March and revealed three days later.[365][366][367]

While not mentioning Israel's participation in the contest, on 29 March 2024, several entrants – namely Bambie Thug (Ireland), Gåte (Norway), Iolanda (Portugal), Megara (San Marino), Mustii (Belgium), Nemo (Switzerland), Olly Alexander (United Kingdom), Saba (Denmark), Silvester Belt (Lithuania) and Windows95man (Finland) – released a joint statement calling for "an immediate and lasting ceasefire" in Gaza as well as the return of war hostages.[368][369]

On 9 April 2024, the EBU released a statement by deputy director-general Jean Philip De Tender condemning "targeted social media campaigns" against participating artists, reportedly over the insufficient pressure put on the union to exclude Israel, stating that the inclusion of a country in the contest "is the sole responsibility of the EBU's governing bodies and not that of the individual artists".[370][371] On 27 April, executive supervisor Martin Österdahl also spoke against "hate in the media and on social media against the participants and those that work with this", and defended the rationale whereby Kan had been allowed to compete.[372][373]

Protest actions

A number of national selection events were disrupted by activists calling for a boycott in the lead-up to the contest. These included the first semi-final of Norway's Melodi Grand Prix, which saw a protester breaking on stage during the broadcast;[374] the final of Spain's Benidorm Fest, where two audience members were briefly shown waving Palestinian flags;[375] the second heat of Sweden's Melodifestivalen, which saw two audience members wearing watermelon costumes and holding up placards calling for attention to the targeting of Palestinian children during the war;[376] and selection events in Denmark[377] and Finland,[378] which were targeted by demonstrators outside the venues calling for a boycott.

Demonstrations against Israeli participation have also taken place in the host city Malmö. In March 2024, the digital signage installed at Malmö Live in preparation for the contest was splattered in red paint, and its base was spray-painted with the words "Free Gaza".[379][380] In early April, posters carrying messages including "Genocide Song Contest", "Malmö says no to genocide" and "Israel out of Eurovision or Eurovision out of Malmö", appeared in the city.[381] A demonstration took place outside the Malmö City Hall [sv], with protesters chanting "long live Palestine" and "Israel is a terrorist state", on 10 April, when the municipality was set to discuss a popular initiative to rescind hosting duties due to Israel's participation. The city council unanimously voted to reject the proposal, with mayor Katrin Stjernfeldt Jammeh reiterating that decisions regarding participating countries are the sole responsibility of the EBU, and clarifying that the municipality could not deal with matters of "foreign policy" without contravening the municipal charter.[382][383] Ahead of the contest, Palestinian flags and watermelon-shaped posters were seen on display in Friisgatan [sv], the location of Eurovision Street.[384][385] In protest against Israeli participation, a number of artists cancelled their appearances in the Eurovision Village's events, forcing organisers to reschedule them.[11][12] Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu commented on the situation, saying that Israel's representative Eden Golan had "already won" against what he referred to as a "horrible wave of antisemitism" in Sweden.[386]

At least six protests are taking place in Malmö during the Eurovision week,[387] four of which on 9 May, the day of the second semi-final, in which Israel competed: one against the country's participation, which included around 25,000 people – among whom Greta Thunberg – in a walk from Stortorget to Möllevångstorget [sv]; another one against the war in Gaza and the Israeli Eurovision delegation, organised outside Malmö Arena; a musical demonstration against Israel's participation, held at Davidshallstorg; one to show support to the delegation, which included a few hundred people; and at least another two in opposition to Israel's participation and in support of Palestine.[386][388][389][390][391] Some protesters reportedly gathered around Golan's hotel, with the singer, who was already under tightened security precautions, being advised by her escort against leaving her accommodation.[392] As an alternative to the Eurovision final, a song contest titled "Falastinvision" is planned to be held on 11 May at the Plan B [sv] music venue in Malmö and streamed online.[389][393][394] By the end of April, around 60 of the 600 volunteers selected to help with the preparations in Malmö had dropped out, due to both security concerns and Israeli participation.[395]

Venue and broadcasts

Semi-final 1 opening act Eric Saade, who has Palestinian origins, performed wearing a keffiyeh, challenging the prohibition against displaying political symbols in the contest; executive producer Ebba Adielsson commented on the gesture as "sad", while the EBU stated that it "regret[ted]" Saade's choice to "compromise the non-political nature of the event" and decided against posting images from his performance on its official social networks.[396][397][398] Saade addressed the criticism claiming that the keffiyeh was an old gift from his father, and accused the EBU of "racism" and "finding [his] ethnicity controversial" for calling it a "political symbol", comparing it to the Dalecarlian horse;[398][399] he had previously criticised the EBU's handling of the controversy as "disgraceful", referring to Israel's participation as "propaganda".[400] Fred Leone, the accompanying didgeridoo player for Australia's performance, had a stylised watermelon painted on his chest, in condemnation of the Gaza "genocide".[401] Before the semi-final, Ireland's entrant Bambie Thug was forced to replace Ogham-script text written on their body which read as "ceasefire" and "freedom for Palestine".[402]

During the second dress rehearsal for the second semi-final, held on 8 May, Israel's performance was booed by the audience, with Golan's voice said to be barely audible amid boos and "free Palestine" chants in footage posted on social media.[403][404] The singer commented that "nothing [would] deter [her]" from giving her "best performance", with Kan adding: "they did not silence her and they will not silence us";[405] the broadcaster reportedly complained with the EBU,[404] however, the incident repeated during the live semi-final the following day.[406] ACOD-VRT, the internal trade union of Flemish broadcaster VRT, shortly interrupted the initial part of the broadcast of the live semi-final, airing a statement denouncing Israel's human rights violations and accusing the country of "destroying freedom of the press"; this followed protests held outside VRT's and RTBF's headquarters in Belgium.[407]

Italian semi-final results leak

At the end of the broadcast of the second semi-final, in which Italy voted, Italian broadcaster RAI displayed what appeared to be the televoting percentages recorded in the country. This contravened the rules of the contest, according to which the detailed results from all shows can only be published after the final.[408][409][410] It was later clarified by RAI that the results shown were not complete, but were in fact partial results of the vote.[411][412]

Dutch rehearsal absence

During the first dress rehearsal for the final, Dutch representative Joost Klein did not appear for his performance despite being present during the flag parade. The EBU stated in a press release that it was "investigating an incident reported to [it] involving the Dutch artist", as well as that "he [would] not be rehearsing until further notice".[413][414] He was also not present for the jury show, and a recording of his performance from the second semi-final was used there instead.[415] The incident was reported to involve a female employee who filed a complaint against Klein. Dutch broadcasters AVROTROS and NPO are holding discussions with the EBU.[416]
