Idol 2009 was the sixth season of the Swedish idol series and was broadcast by TV 4. The jury, identical to the previous year, consisted of Anders Bagge, Laila Bagge and Andreas Carlsson. Peter Jihde, the show's host, was also a continuation of the previous year's cast. The audition cities visited during the spring of 2009 were Gothenburg, Gävle, Malmö, Stockholm and Umeå, respectively. Around 11,000 people applied for Idol 2009, establishing a new Swedish record.[1]
During auditions in Stockholm on 25 April, Idol 2008 winner Kevin Borg performed for the candidates,[2][3] as well as Johan Palm who finished fourth in Idol 2008.[4] In Gothenburg, Erik Segerstedt from Idol 2006 performed; and in Malmö, Sibel from Idol 2005. In Gävle, Idol 2008 runner-up Alice Svensson sang to the applicants; and in Umeå, Daniel Lindström from Idol 2004.
After the final of Idol 2008, the Idol producers said in a video[5] on TV4's website that "Idol 2009 will be bigger than ever!" at the same time confirming that Idol would come back again during 2009. On 18 March TV4 published times and places for the year's audition tour. The programme started broadcasting on 8 September 2009.[6]
After each show a program called "Idol: Eftersnack" was to be sent on TV400. As with the previous year, Katrin Zytomierska and Peter Jihde were the hosts.
On 15 October 2009, it was announced that the participant Erika Selin sang the demo for the song "Run", which would participate in Sweden's national selection "Melodifestivalen 2010" for Eurovision Song Contest 2010. A possible involvement in the festival, however, did not interfere with her participation in Idol.[7][8]
In 2010, Clara was recruited to a newly started project with Jonas Berggren and Ulf Ekberg from Ace of Base. Clara was to share lead vocals with Julia Williamson. The first single from their album was released in September 2010.

Below is a list of the nineteen jury-selected qualifiers.[10] Before the qualifiers, the viewers got to decide whether Calle Kristiansson or Piotr Pawel Pospiech would move to the qualifying week. Viewers chose Calle Kristiansson as the 20th competitor. Those marked in bold are the ones which viewers chose to forward to the weekly finals. (The jury chose four of these, a total of 11 contestants.)
20 participants remained for the final audition week in Stockholm. These were divided into four groups, two for men and two for women respectively. After the last episode of the week, 11 of the 20 remained and were chosen to compete for the title "Idol 2009". Those who are in bold are the ones viewers voted for the qualifying finals.
