🇱🇻 Format of Supernova 2026
LTV/LSM announced last year that the selection would return to a format of two Semi-Finals, with twelve entries in each show, with only the top five of each night qualifying to the Grand Final, thanks to a combination of jury and public vote. This would mean ten entries in the final, although LTV/LSM may send an eleventh song in through a wildcard, in agreement with the jury.
The Grand Final will also feature the classic mix of jury and televote, with both votes being summarised as rankings and used in the Eurovision-style system of points: the winner of each vote will receive 12 points, the runner-up, 10, etc. The song with the most points will win the competition and the right to represent Latvia in Austria. In case of a tie, as it happened in 2025, the song with the best public score will win.
The semi-finals will take place on 30 January and 7 February, with the Final on Valentine’s Day, 14 February. This Valentine’s Day will be a Super Saturday, with finals in Latvia, Poland, Estonia, Denmark, and Spain, as well as Heats in Lithuania and Sweden. And in addition to that, it will also be in the middle of a Winter Olympics week-end, although no medal events should be taking place after 21:00 CET that day.
