The 2025 format

Melodifestivalen 2025 will consist of 5 heats with 6 competing acts in each heat. The two acts with the highest points from each heat will advance directly to the final. But, who will get the last two tickets for the final will differ compared to last year’s competition.

In 2024, the acts that got the 3rd and 4th places in the heat, advanced to the “finalkvalet” round (second chance). Next year, only the 3rd-placed act will qualify for this round and thus have a chance to complete the 12-song line up of the final. This means that “finalkvalet” will only have 5 competing songs instead of 10 and a different voting system.

This round will once again take place right after the 5th heat is over. There will be a voting round where the highest scoring act of the five will qualify for the final. A second voting round will begin where the viewers will be able to vote for the remaining four acts and the one with the highest points will take the last ticket for the big final in Stockholm.
