Christer Björkman, Contest Producer, commented: 

‘It’s a very good year! It’s playful with high energy and very fun to work with! Above that, all participating countries have great ideas, which makes it extremely inspiring for us on the Contest team. 

In addition, we are so thrilled now that The Big Five and Sweden get to show themselves fully in the Semi-Finals. They are fully integrated into the shows which gives them the chance to grow into the Grand Final.’
