Luxembourg Song Contest
Luxembourg's national final took place at the Rockhal in Esch-sur-Alzette. The show was hosted by Désirée Nosbusch, Melody Funck, Raoul Roos, and Loïc Juchem. While former Eurovision winners Vicky Leandros and Anne-Marie David opened the show, Alexander Rybak, Ruslana, Katrina, and Charlotte Perrelli performed as interval acts.
The show consisted of two rounds, with three artists advancing to the Super Final. The voting for the Luxembourg Song Contest mirrored that of the ESC, with 50% jury vote and 50% from the public vote. International fans were also able to vote in the song contest. The jury vote was made up of juries from eight countries, each consisting of five members.
