DR, the Danish national broadcaster, have revealed the first details for DMGP 2026 – their national selection for the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest.

DR have revealed that the 2026 edition of DMGP will take place on Saturday 14th February. Furthermore, the Contest will be held in Frederikshavn, North Jutland, at the Arena Nord. The same venue will host De unges Melodi Grand Prix, the junior edition – although a return to the Junior Eurovision Song Contest is currently ruled out.

Frederikshavn will hold various events and activities in the city during the two weeks of DMGP, which will be revealed later in the year. Ticket information will be available in September.

Erik Struve Hansen, Programme Manager for DMGP, had the following to say:

“The ambition of the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix is ​​to bring Danes together across the board through music.

I am pleased because it means that the show, in a time when we are seeing each other more and more often, continues to be relevant and is something that people from all parts of the country relate to.”
