The fourth qualifying round of Melodifestivalen, Sweden’s preselection for the Eurovision Song Contest, takes place tonight in Malmö. Eight acts will be fighting for the two spots in the Stockholm final and another two (the third and fourth placed) songs will be given a second chance in the Andra Chansen round which will be held in Karlstad.
This round features many big names, such as Army of Lovers, Sylvia Vrethammar and Ulrik Munther. Alcazar will be reuniting for the interval act and Petra Mede who will host the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest will be joining hosts Danny Saucedo and Gina Dirawi in the opening act.
