Eesti Laul 2021: Last six finalists selected

All the 12 finalists for Estonia's Eesti Laul 2021 are found. The last six were selected tonight in the second Semi-final of the Estonian selection for Eurovision Song Contest 2021

Earlier this week, Estonia started the search for their twelve finalists by choosing the first six songs. Tonight Estonia continued its national selection with Semi-final 2 of Eesti Laul 2021. The two Semi-finals are held in Tallinn, for the first time since 2018 due to the current pandemic restrictions. Opposed to previous years, no audience will be allowed. All shows are hosted by Tõnis Niinemets and Grete Kuld.

Twelve artists took part in both Semi-finals but only six on each night qualified to the Final of Eesti Laul to be held 6 March 2021.
