From now until September 18th, interested artists and songwriters can submit their songs to Norwegian broadcaster NRK, following these rules:
- It is encouraged that all submissions must have at least one Norwegian songwritter, as Melodi Grand Prix wants to promote Norwegian music.

- All songs must be no longer than three minutes and cannot have been released or performed prior to September 1st, 2022.
Melodi Grand Prix has been used to select Norway’s Eurovision representative every year since 1960, and has seen a whole host of different formats. Since 2020, the format of Melodi Grand Prix has been comprised of five heats, with four acts going head to head in two duels, and one grand final.
At this moment in time, the Norwegian broadcaster has not given any details of how the format for next years show will be. Will the duels be making a return? Or will we see a totally new format? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
