London Schlager Party tickets selling fast

The next London Schlager Party takes place on Saturday 29th March and tickets are fast selling out for the event. Dubbed 'Melodifestivalen Revisited' the night will be the first time British fans get the chance to go out on the town and hear many of this year's Swedish national selection songs.

The first four events all sold out and the party has become established in the captial of the United Kingdom, receiving television, radio and press coverage. The event has been recommended in London's most read newspaper, The Metro and Eurovision Song Contest fans are recommended to book their tickets now to avoid disappointment. It is unlikely that any tickets will be available on the door, so book tickets now at www.schlagerparty.co.uk.

The event takes place once again at London's Loom Bar, 5 Clipstone Street, London W1W 6BB on Saturday 29th March from 20:00 to 2:00. Tickets include a free Swedish Cider on entry and can be purchased from the official website only: www.schlagerparty.co.uk.

In addition to hearing all your favourite Melodifestivalen and Eurovision Song Contest songs from the past, there will be several remixes from the 2008 competition including the songs by Linda Bengtzing, Carola/Andreas and a dance remix of Sanna Nielsen's Empty Room courtesy of SoundFactory Sweden, never before played in the United Kingdom along with many of this year's Eurovision Song Contest songs.

Ah, thanks for the info. I guess the UK could act as a stand-in for Denmark or Norway then :P

Sweden consistently recieves decent points from the UK. Rarely the top score but I cannot remember the last timne we gave them nothing. I could be wrong but I think we generally do give them some points.

I wonder if there are any parties going on in Liverpool...


I much prefer the German brand of schlager...

London calling: I'm ain't Swedish so I wouldn't remember, but I do recall quite a good score for Swedish glamrock entry of 07 (one of the few good scores). But previously, how has UK voted for the more traditional Swedish acts? I mean, there has to be some reason for these parties :P

I love Swedish music, they have produced and will continue to produce some fantastic ESC and MF entries. I'm not going to go to this one but I'm aiming to go to one some day.

Yeah, but that was because it was the Ark. I expected that to score high in the UK since it's glam rock. But schlager? How big is the schlager and dance scene in the UK? Although events like these seem popular I just haven't seen this interest reflected much in the UK's voting.

What??? You need to look at the statistics. The UK favours Sweden a lot in the voting. We gave the Ark 7 points last year, by the way.

Nice for ESC-fans in London! For all this Swedish love I can't recall when the UK last awarded Sweden any high points though?

whoa, what an amazing chance.
Good Luck to Sweden, I feel this year you have the best chance to win. But then so does Portugal and Switzerland
