Croatia’s selection for Eurovision 2024 will feature novelties in the voting system

In a few weeks, Dora 2024 will elect Croatia’s representative for the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC)… and there will be some news. The semi-finals are on February 22 and 23, while the final is scheduled for February 25. All shows will take place at the HRT studios in Zagreb.

The newspaper Jutarnji List reports that in the semi-finals, the results are entirely determined by televoting. As for the final, the jury accounts for 50%, and the public for the other 50%.

For the first time, the jury will not only consist of Croatian professionals: four members are nationals, and four are international, coming from Germany, Iceland, Italy, and Ukraine.

As revealed some weeks ago, there are 24 participants in Dora 2024. Each semi-final has 12, of which eight qualify for a final that will feature 16 songs.
