Melodifestivalen

Melodifestivalen 2022 will be the 1st edition of the Swedish music competition Melodifestivalen, organised by Sveriges Television (SVT) over a period of 2 weeks. The winner will represent Sweden in Nedas and Rob's Earthvision Song Contest 05 to be held in Gliwice, Poland.

Heats
There will be three heats to be held over one week, half of the points will be awarded by an international jury awarding 12, 10, 8, 5, 3, and 1 points, with the other half coming from a public televote. The two songs with the most points combined will qualify directly to the final, the songs that place third and fourth overall will qualify to the online Andra Chansen round. A full break down of the voting will be published after the Grand Final.

Andra Chansen
The third and fourth placing songs from the three heats (six songs) will qualify to the Andra Chansen round. SVT announced that the Andra Chansen round will be held on discord instead of in ROBLOX. A draw will be held (date TBA) to place the six songs into three groups where one will qualify to the final from each group. Unlike the heats the points in the Andra Chansen round will come completely from televote - there will be no international juries voting.

Final
The final will follow the same voting principles as the heats, with 50% of the points coming from an international jury awarding 12, 10, 8, 5, 3, and 1 points, the other 50% will come from a public televote.
