Now the artists who will compete in the first two competitions in Melodifestivalen 2023 have been released. Great musical breadth is promised throughout Sweden’s festival, which starts in Gothenburg on February 4.
– There will be new exciting names and voices on offer that go hand in hand with more well-known ones. Part competition 1 and 2 contains a wonderful musical breadth, with everything from EPA-dunk to stripped down and close, two public favorites from last season and a fast and festive guarantee with several dear returners with humor and up-tempo as a signature, says competition producer Karin Gunnarsson.

14 of the 28 entries competing in Melodifestivalen 2023
