What we know about Eurovision 2024
The Nordic country will be hosting the 68th edition of the competition following Loreen’s historic win at Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool. One month after the 2023 contest taking place SVT revealed the first names of the Core Team that will be working on the competition, with the team completed in September.
In July 2023, after a shortlist of four cities, it was announced that Malmö would host Eurovision 2024. The city will spend up to €2.5 million for the contest, as well as having 600 volunteers working for the show.
As for the upcoming contest, there will be 37 countries participating. Luxembourg will be returning, whilst Romania withdraws. ‘United By Music’ will be the permanent slogan for the contest. The upcoming contest will have ‘The Eurovision Lights’ as the theme art, with the stage, which is undertaken by Florian Wieder and Fredrik Stormby who are behind the concept, revealed in December.
