The Norwegian participating broadcaster, Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK), organised the national final Melodi Grand Prix 2024 between January and February 2024 in order to select its entry for the contest.

[17][18] Further demonstrations took place before the first and second semi-final of the event on 13 and 20 January, reiterating the calls for the exclusion of Israel in light of the number of casualties among journalists since the outbreak of the war and denouncing the targeting of Palestinian children; one of the protesters of 13 January, identified as Oslo city council member Jorunn Folkvord [no], broke in during the live broadcast saying that "Norway can do more".

[20][21][22] The winners of MGP, Gåte, also expressed initial uncertainty about taking part in the competition due to the participation of Israel, but ultimately confirmed their presence at the contest.

[23][24] While not mentioning Israel's participation in the contest, on 29 March 2024, Gåte released a joint statement with other Eurovision 2024 entrants – namely Bambie Thug (Ireland), Iolanda (Portugal), Megara (San Marino), Mustii (Belgium), Nemo (Switzerland), Olly Alexander (United Kingdom), Saba (Denmark), Silvester Belt (Lithuania) and Windows95man (Finland) – calling for "an immediate and lasting ceasefire" in Gaza as well as the return of the Israeli hostages held by Hamas.

[31] Ahead of the contest, NRK organised and broadcast the traditional Eurovision preview show Adresse [no], under the title Adresse Malmø [no]; hosted by Stokstad, it consisted of five shows between 13 April and 4 May 2024, each featuring a panel composed of television personalities and members from the public who discussed and evaluated the competing entries, ultimately decreeing a favourite[32][33] – namely Italy's Angelina Mango with "La noia".

[34] As part of the Eurovision programming, NRK also cooperated with DR and SVT alongside other EBU member broadcasters – namely ARD/WDR, the BBC, ČT, ERR, France Télévisions, NTR, RÚV, VRT and Yle – to produce and air a documentary titled ABBA – Against the Odds, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Sweden's first victory at the contest with "Waterloo" by ABBA.

[36] The staging of their performance of "Ulveham" at the contest features smoke, lasers, and a spinning platform for the lead singer; the colour green is predominant.

[40] The Norwegian jury consisted of Daniel Owen, Lars Horn Lavik, Annprincess Johnson Koffa, Lisa Stokke, and Gunilla Süssmann.

[42][43] NRK initially appointed Alessandra Mele, who represented Norway in the 2023 contest, as its spokesperson to announce the Norwegian jury's votes in the final.

Each participating broadcaster assembles a five-member jury panel consisting of music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent.
