On Saturday, May 9, SVT's Eurovision Week starts and first out is what is called "Before ESC" where this year's 41 contributions are presented by Christer Björkman and comedian David Sundin. The viewers can then vote on the contributions they want to see in the final, according to a press release from SVT.
Five days later, the voted contributions will appear in SVT again and viewers can vote again. Participants make, among others, Melodifestivalen winners The Mamas, writes SVT.
"I am pleased that the viewers can also vote for their favorites this year and hope and believe that it can gather the Swedish people at a time when nothing else is alike," says Christer Björkman in the press release.
On the third occasion, the songs that would have competed in Rotterdam will be celebrated under the guidance of the program leaders who would have led Eurovision Song Contest 2020, Chantal Janzen, Edsilia Rombley and Jan Smit.
Eurovision's reference group has decided that the songs submitted to Eurovision 2020 must not be used in 2021 because it violates the rules. You can, however, send the same artist if you wish. However, Christer Björkman has signaled that this is not relevant for Sweden.
