Supernova 2020
Supernova 2020 will consist of only one live show scheduled for 8 February, contrary to previous years.
From the 26 songs, a jury will be in charge of selecting the 8 best that will get the chance to perform their song live on the Supernova stage.
Ilze Jansone, producer of Supernova 2020 clarifies:
– Television viewers will only be actively involved in the evaluation of the songs by voting in the live broadcast of the final. 8 final songs will be chosen by the jury, also considering how the songs will be judged by the audience on the YouTube platform.
The 8 final songs will be announced on 16 January.
Latvia in Eurovision Song Contest
Latvia debuted in Eurovision Song Contest in 2000, and since then, the country has participated every year (20 times) in the contest. The best result was in 2002, where Latvia won Eurovision Song Contest with the song "I Wanna" by Marie N.
The last ten years Latvia finished last in their semi-finals four times, and only managed to qualify for the Grand Final two times.
