The numerous OGAE clubs are currently voting for the entries that are competing in the contest, with the results to be revealed in due course.
Slight decrease in competing this year
Understandably, after the 2022 Second Chance Contest, we see a dip in the number of participating clubs, due to some of the countries withdrawing at Eurovision 2023.
In 2022, OGAE Norway had the honor of hosting the competition after winning the 2021 competition with Eurovision 2019 televoting winners KEiiNO and their MGP 2021 entry “Monument”. Overall, Melodifestivalkluben (OGAE Sweden) won the competition with MEDINA and “In I Dimman”
