Why Melfest 2026 could have a surprise winner

The Euro Trip | Eurovision Podcast

Show Notes

We've reached the final of Melodifestivalen 2026, so who will left the famous trophy on Saturday night?

We cross to Stockholm as we're reunited with Aftonbladet's Tobbe Ek to predict the winners and losers and who could be flying flag for Sweden in Austria.

Can anyone beat Felicia, could Greczula take it home, or will a complete outsider come from nowhere to win the whole competition?

We're also joined by five-time Melfest finalist Robin Bengtsson, and we look back at the whole series after an exciting six weeks on the road.

This year we're delighted to be teaming up with the Europarty app to help you bring even more enjoyment to this year's Melodifestivalen.
