The stage design for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 has been revealed. The stage was designed by Florian Wieder and Fredrik Stormby
The Swedish broadcaster and producer of Eurovision 2024, SVT, has revealed the design of the stage and lighting for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
Malmö Arena will be filled with LED lights in May. The stage will be shaped like a cross and placed in the middle of the audience, creating a 360-degree experience.
The creators of the concept are the Light and Screen Content Designer Fredrik Stormby, and the champion in stage design, Production Designer Florian Wieder.
Ebba Adielsson, Executive Producer, says:
– It is with great pride that we present our vision of the stage and lighting design for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024. We have not seen anything like this before at Eurovision and the concept gives us endless opportunities to create unique spaces and expressions for both the competing artists and the opening and interval acts.
– Florian and Fredrik's creation is simply fantastic and it will be so much fun to see the end result.
Fredrik Stormy, Light and Screen Content Designer, says:
– We believe that together we have created what is an unexpected and updated concept for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 and are looking forward to showing it off for real! I am honored to have been commissioned to design the light and video in collaboration with the team from our studio, and the production team that SVT has put into place for the project.
– We've developed a strong concept together, and I'm really looking forward to the continued collaboration in production, the creative process with the delegations, and eventually getting my teeth into the show and doing the broadcasts.
