An Xtra Happy Birthday! Week 34

August 25th

Two birthdays to celebrate today, one has tight connections to Eurovision and Meldodifestevalen!

Christer Björkman, 61

Björkman is maybe better know Eurovision for being the producer of Meldodifestivalen since 2002. Also known for being the Eurovision Show Producer for Malmö 2013 and Eurovision Contest Producer for Stockholm 2016. However he did win the Swedish selection in 1992, that is why he is on this birthday list.  He performed “I morgon är en annan dag” in Oslo.  Unfortunately his entry finished second to last. I am sure many people are super happy with Björkman’s dedication to Eurovision. So Cheers to him!
