It is broadcast by Radiotelevisión Española in collaboration with the Generalitat Valenciana. The show is based on the Benidorm International Song Festival.
Overview
The contest consists of two semi-finals, in which a number of performers – soloists, duos, trios or groups – perform their songs live. Four entries from each semi-final progress into the finale, where the finalists perform again.
Voting
Points are given to each entry depending on how it ranked in three different votes. The votes are:
- Expert jury (50%) – heads of delegation, artists, musicians and industry experts
- Demoscopic panel (25%) – a statistically-selected sample of the Spanish population.
- Public voting (25%) – via telephone and SMS
