What this line-up suggests
This 2026 roster signals a deliberate blend of nostalgia and renewal: veteran stars with proven public appeal (like Sanna Nielsen and Robin Bengtsson) sit alongside newcomers and comeback stories (A-Teens, Brandsta City Släckers, and fresh artists like Greczula or Cimberly). For fans of Swedish pop — and for longtime Mello watchers — this promises both familiarity and surprises.
The competition will begin on 31 January 2026 in Linköping, and will travel through semi-finals in Göteborg, Kristianstad, Malmö and Sundsvall — before the grand final on 7 March 2026 at Strawberry Arena in Stockholm (Solna).
