This Tuesday, Olly Alexander (United Kingdom), Isaak (Germany), and Marcus & Martinus (Sweden) also took the stage at the Malmö Arena, thus presenting themselves to the ESC audience.
In 2024, for the first time, the countries directly qualified for the final perform live during the semi-final in which they vote, among the competing songs. Until last year, these performances took place in the Jury Show and only excerpts were broadcast during the semi-final.
