Production Designer Florian Wieder says:

– I am so happy to be part of the Eurovision family again! Putting together an exceptional show is a team effort and I'm proud to be part of a dream team of professionals – just the right constellation of people to come up with something different and new. We all have the same vision of what this show should be and how to take Eurovision to the next level, and for me Sweden is always a guarantor of good music and entertainment.

Light and Screen Content Designer Fredrik Stormby adds:

– 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! We've developed a strong concept together, and I'm really looking forward to getting my teeth into the show and doing the broadcasts!
