Welcome to Gothenburg
"A Meander along the Waterfront"
Situated on Sweden's western coastline, Gothenburg attracts visitors with cultural festivals, a lively music scene, and a blend of classical and modern architecture. Home to a large student population, which makes a significant contribution to the city's youthful and energetic atmosphere, Gothenburg once served as the center of Sweden's shipbuilding industry. Although evidence of its working-class roots remains visible in and around the old harbor, most of the city's waterfront now serves as a busy tourist-driven area, offering easy access to fine museums, trendy cafes, and chic stores. To see Gothenburg from a slightly different perspective, take a guided boat tour of the city's famed 17th-century canals.

The Result
Countries receiving most 12 points / Australia, Canada and Germany, 3
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Germany
Countries receiving points from most juries / Sweden, 18
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / Denmark in 10th place with 10 points from Australia as highest mark
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / Argentina in 22nd place getting 12 points from Finland
The lead was held by Germany and Russia in the beginning, but by the 6th juror Sweden took the lead and stayed ahead until the end, thus claiming the triple! Germany won the silver and Australia took home the bronze, while Croatia - with their best result ever - and Norway rounded out the top 5.
Sweden is a founding member of Global Music and for the first 19 editions, they didn't miss a single contest, racking up 5 trophies in the process!
In fact, they kicked off their Global Music career with a gold medal for One More Time. For the next couple of editions they finished outside the top 10, only to bounce back in GM04, winning the silver, and then another gold in GM06 for Jessica Folcker. Their second victory was followed by several other top 10 results and a third gold medal in GM12, when Basshunter finished on top. Back to back victories followed in GM17 and 18 by Carola and Lena Philipsson respectively. With a new HoD, Sweden took their 6th gold medal in GM29 with Sanna Nielsen. Shortly after Sweden once again won back to back editions with Danny and Sanna Nielsen in GM32 and GM33 respectively. And now Sweden makes it three in a row for a total of 9 gold medals! Well done Sweden, Sibel and Sónia!
