The Eurovision Song Contest 2000 was the 45th

Eurovision Song Contest and was held on 13 May 2000

mainland Europe. The contest was the second to be held
in Stockholm, and the fourth held in Sweden. The pre-
senters were Kattis Ahlstrm and Anders Lundin, and the
contest was won by the Olsen Brothers who represented
