The Qualifiers
We are well versed on how the qualifiers are announced in Melfest after 2 heats already! After the voting lines opened and closed we see Marcus & Martinus go straight to the final!
The voting lines reopened for a short while, interval act
This led us to the final qualifiers being announced. As we know votes are presented in Eurovision style from each age televote category.
Iconic Melfest and Eurovision host Petra Mede was added to the Hall of Fame and after a tour of Lidkoping it was the results. Nordman and Melanie Wehbe are going to the semi-final (second chance round)!
And finally Paul Rey will go direct to the final!
Melodifestivalen continues next week in Malmö where another 7 artists will compete for the next 4 spaces.
The Semi-Final (Second Chance) takes place on the 4th of March with the final in Stockholm following the week after.
