SWEDEN |
The Swedish Semi-Finals were hosted by Måns Zelmerlöw, Christine Meltzer Lind & Dolph Lundgren. The first 4 semi-finals had two rounds of televoting. In the first round, the top song automatically qualified for the final, while the bottom 3 songs were eliminated. In the second round, the top song (out of the remaining 4) also qualified for the final, while the 2nd & 3rd placed songs went forward to the 5th semi-final where they had a second chance to qualify for the final. In the 5th semi-final songs competed in groups of pairs. The most popular song from each pairing was chosen by televoting, then the winners of pairs 1 & 2 competed against each other to qualify for the final as did the winners of pairs 3 & 4.
