The Melodifestivalen tour moved, for the first time, to Östersund for the third semi-final of the popular Swedish selection for the Eurovision Song Contest.
This year the shows are hosted by Sweden's most recent hopeful at Eurovision, Sanna Nielsen, who made her country proud after placing 3rd in Copenhagen last May with Undo. Alongside her, comedian and presenter Robin Paulsson.
After the lines were closed the presenters announced the results of the third semi-final of Melodifestivalen 2015. These two were the winners and thus proceed to the final in Stockholm:
Jon Henrik Fjällgren - Jag är fri (Manne Liem Frije)
Isa - Don’t Stop
Two further songs will get a second chance in the so-called Andra Chansen round:
Andreas Weise - Bring Out the Fire
