Melody Festival

Fredrik just informed me that he got us tickets to see the Fourth quarter-finals on Saturday, where voters will determine Sweden's entry into the Eurovision song contest!
It is a song contest that all European countries are invited to enter each year. Famous Swedish singers compete with each other performing newly-composed songs and people call in and vote for their favorite, then the winner from each country goes to the big final, this year it will be in Moscow.
We watch the contest on TV, taking turns with friends hosting a little party for nearly every quarter final during the contest; this year one of the quarter finals will be held in the arena in Malmö. Here's more:

No picture today, but I will be posting more tomorrow when I shop for what to wear, and of course on Saturday during the event. I am so excited!
