It took five semi final rounds, through which 5 finalists were determined to join the other 5 prequalified (by a jury) finalists in tonight’s grand final of Melodi Grand Prix 2020, that will determine Norway’s Eurovision 2020 act and entry.
The show this year moves to Trondeheim Spektrum in Trondheim, and will be presented to us by Kåre Magnus Bergh, Ingrid Gjessing Linhave and Ronny Brede Aase.
The 10 contestants of the MGP 2020 final are :
- Raylee – Wild

Among the contestants we meet acts that have made an attempt to represent the country in past national selections. Namely, Raylee (MGP 2015), Ulrikke Brandstorp (MGP 2017) and Tone Damli (MGP 2009), who apart from MGP, has taken part in Melodifestivalen 2013 with Erik Segerstedt, reaching the second chance round. Among the finalists is the ESC 2010 representative Didrik Solli-Tangen. Notable that behind Magnus Bokn’s entry as composers of the song Over The Sea is Alexander Rybak , ESC 2009 winner and ESC 2018 representative, and Joakim With Steen , aka JOWST , who represented Norway in 2017.
THE VOTING PROCESS AND RESULT
The final winner will be determined after three rounds of voting taking place online by the public. Once all performances are over, the first four acts with the most votes will qualify to the next round of voting. While a short recap of the 4 songs is demonstrated the online voting will select the two acts that will go in a last superfinal round. During the last round the two acts will have the chance to perform one last time their entries. The act with the mosts public votes wins the ticket to Rotterdam next May.
