Four artists were invited on June 30th, July 7th, 14th and 21st. In case of an artist already having been confirmed the 9th, 10th etc. entry were eligible for an invitation as well.

Every jury member produces a full ranking, which will then be converted into a jury ranking based on the average ranking per entry. The other half of the result will be decided by app voting available to the public, in which a song can be approved with a thumbs up. The final tally in this vote produces a full ranking, which will then be converted into a public ranking. The combined vote produces the final result.
