LATVIA |
The Latvian Semi-Finals were held at the Palladium in Riga hosted by Martin Meiers, Madara Botmane & Anta Aizupe. The top 6 songs, chosen by televoting (50%) and an "expert" jury (50%) qualified for the final - points were awarded in terms of placings (1st place = 1 point etc), therefore the 6 lowest scoring songs qualified for the final.
