Swedish singer Ulrik Munther could return to Melodifestivalen in 2027, according to reporting by Aftonbladet relayed by Eurovisionfun on 14 October. The Swedish newspaper claims Munther has been told his song was selected for next year's competition.
What to know
- Aftonbladet reports that Ulrik Munther has a place in Melodifestivalen 2027.
- SVT has not officially confirmed Munther's participation.
- Munther previously finished third in both 2012 and 2013.
The claim has not been confirmed by broadcaster SVT, so Munther should be treated as a reported candidate rather than an officially announced contestant. The song title, full line-up and performance details have not been formally published.
Munther competed at Melodifestivalen in 2012 with Soldiers and in 2013 with Tell the World I'm Here. He finished third on both occasions, giving a potential 2027 return a notable backstory.
The artist also appeared as part of Björnzone in 2024, renewing public attention in Sweden. If the reported selection is confirmed, 2027 would be his third appearance as a solo Melodifestivalen competitor.
Melodifestivalen is Sweden's annual route to the Eurovision Song Contest. Song Contest Radar will update this report when SVT publishes the confirmed artist list or responds to the reported casting.
