Alexander Borodin, Project Manager for Melfest WKND 2025, had the following to say:

“Despite rising costs and an uncertain world situation, we are incredibly proud to once again bring together artists and fans for Melfest WKND. This event is a true celebration of music, community, and the unifying power of Eurovision. This year, we are especially excited to highlight current and relevant elements from both Ukraine and Sápmi—connecting cultures across the continent. From the north of Scandinavia to the heart of Eastern Europe, Melfest WKND showcases how music transcends borders and unites us all.”
