Semi-final allocation draw

The draw that determined the semi-final allocation was held on 31 August 2014 in Lumturi. All of the participating countries excluding debuting countries were split into five pots, based on the voting history of those countries in previous years. From these pots, half (or as close to half as was possible) competed in the first semi-final. The other half in that particular pot competed in the second semi-final.

As hosts, Pen Island were exempt from the allocation draw.

The pots were calculated by the Sunettian broadcaster CSI and were as followed:
