MGP 2024: Live Reaction from the Crowd to the Televoting Results & Gåte WINNING (Norway Eurovision)

Plus first thoughts from me and my friends about the result and a clip of Gåte´s Live Performance at the official Melodi Grand Prix Afterparty.

Watching it in person is always more fun, especially when the audience is so lively. It was so much fun when people went into party mode when they went through past Swedish-winning songs, and the reaction to Carola's appearance was wild. XD.
It was also fun when people spontaneously turned on the lights on their phones. I remember in 2020, we were told to do it during specific songs, but this time, it was genuinely spontaneous. I don't think it was visible on TV during MIIA's song (Who deserved way more points), but you can clearly see it during "Judge Tenderly of Me". I think we definitely improved the stage show.
And it was also wild when Gåte won, which was super fun since they were my favorite.
It was my third time watching the mgp final in Trondheim Spectrum and this felt like the most lively final. And I think you can hear it on the TV, too XD.

Great summary of MGP 2024 as a live experience. ❤️ It was so cool with the lights, so I wish they would have showed it on TV when MIIA was live, but I understand the show wasent produced to have any crowd shots (even if I think it would have helped her get more points during the final because of the WOW Factor). 🤩✨
I have been to 9 Finals in Oslo, but Trondheim had by far the best crowd. This was also My First time in Trondheim and I can’t wait to come back. ❤️

@@eurovisiontalk3910 That's a lot more finals XD
I'm curious, how different was the Trondheim audience compared to Oslo?
If I remember correctly, before the show started, the lady who gave important information said something about how Trondheim had the best/her favorite audience.
Since it's the only audience I'm used to, I don't have anything to compare it to.
So I'm curious.
Regardless, I hope they continue to host the final in Trondheim. Not much happens here despite it being the third biggest city with a lot to offer. Did you get a chance to check out the city?
Still great to hear you liked it despite our weather XD

I´ve always been with people who are hyped and interested in the Oslo crowds, but it´s noticable in the audience that a lot of people don´t care that much or want´s to keep quiet.
It also might be because the audio usually is pretty bad in Oslo Spektrum for most sections, so a lot of people don´t catch what´s going on and decide not to return the following year (and some even leave during the actual show) witch leads to Oslo Spektrum not having sold out a MGP Final since 2011 (I think). And one of my better MGP experiences being the small venue in Oslo in 2022.
Oslo also having large events almost every day may be why people care less. Cause even when Oslo hosted Eurovision in 2010 was it not really noticable in the City compeared to all the other Eurovision´s (Except Torino) where Eurovision and the fans took over for the week.
Hopefully can Trondheim still host even with "Ski VM" happening a couple of weeks later next year.
