I am not alone. There are thousands of people at Malmö Arena and me and my daughter are two of them.
It’s the dress rehearsal for the big finale tonight. I am not much of a Eurovision Song Contest-fan but my daughter loves it and it is an experience. So when my hometown was chosen to host the event after Loreen won last year, I decided to give my daughter this for Christmas.
Music and singing, a bit of glamour and a party feeling – ingredients that can spice up any day!
I can’t help myself from shedding a tear or two – whenever I see a lot of happy people coming together I am moved. We are meant to be together, and share moments of happiness. ‘We are one’ is a great theme for this event!
I also like to spend time with the kids, one-on-one. It makes for a special treat. And right now, the male family members are also having a one-on-one of a different kind. Double treat!
Do you jump to the occasion to spice up your day when you have the opportunity?



Hi! My daughter is also a big Eurovison fan and I’d love to take her to Copenhagen next year (will visit Malmo also)! Do you know if children (age 8+) can attend the main shows? I didn’t see any in the audience.
Plenty of kids below 8 during the rehearsals at least – I prefer the rehearsal over the real thing actually!
