Melodifestivalen 1969 was the selection for the 11th song to represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest. It was the 10th time that this system of picking a song had been used. 2,402 songs were submitted to SVT for the competition. The final was held in the Cirkus in Stockholm on 1 March 1969, hosted by Pekka Langer and was broadcast on TV1 but was not broadcast on radio. This was the first time a tie occurred for first place in the competition.
