Swedish broadcaster SVT have aired the first of their Allsång på Skansen shows for 2020, with Sanna Nielsen returning to host the singalong event. The first show features Agnes, The Mamas, Jill Johnson & Robin Stjernberg and Newkid.
After all the action of Melodifestivalen at the start of the year, summer brings a series of open-air concerts to Sweden. Very often you will find a variety of Melfest and Eurovision stars taking the stage to perform their songs. The difference this year is that due to the coronavirus situation for the first time there will be no audience to singalong. Instead all the singers will perform for each other and TV viewers will be encouraged to join in at home. Thanks to Sanna Nielsen’s wonderful hosting, the beautiful Stockholm surroundings on show and the talented band & artists on stage the feel good factor remains despite the lack of audience.
