The host city for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 has been announced.
The 68th annual competition will be held in Sweden next year, after Loreen won with her song Tattoo.
Broadcaster SVT and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) will host the grand final on Saturday, May 11, with the semi-finals earlier in the week on Tuesday, May 7 and Thursday, May 9.
The Eurovision Song Contest 2024 will be held in the Swedish city of Malmö.
Malmö is the third-largest city in Sweden after Stockholm and Gothenburg.
Loreen’s 2023 victory with her song Tattoo means Sweden now rival Ireland with the victories in Eurovision history.
The country made its Eurovision debut in 1958, and has only missed three contests since: 1964, 1970 and 1976.
ABBA were Sweden’s first Eurovision winners back in 1974.
Herreys won in 1984, Carola claimed the victory in 1991, and Charlotte Nilsson took the trophy home in 1999.
Meanwhile, Loreen has won the contest twice – initially in 2012, and again this year, and finally Måns Zelmerlöw won back in 2015.
