Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2011


Less than a week after the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 concluded, Danish broadcaster DR started preparing the 2011 edition of its national selection, Dansk Melodi Grand Prix. As in recent years, the selection was a one-off event. Songs could be submitted until 27 September 2010. Performers or songwriters were required to hold Danish citizenship or have correspondingly strong relationships with Denmark. There was no restriction on the language of the entries. A preliminary jury would select 6 songs for the national selection, while another 4 entries would be contributed by acts invited by the broadcaster on the basis of editorial considerations.[1]


On 27 September 2010, DR announced that 663 songs had been submitted for Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2011, 101 songs more than the previous year.[2]


On 15 October 2010, DR announced that the national final would take place on 26 February 2011 in the Ballerup Super Arena in Ballerup, a north-western suburb of Copenhagen.[3]


On 11 December 2010, DR announced that Felix Smith and Lise Rønne would host the show.[4]


On 3 February, DR announced the 10 songs competing in Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2011.[5]
