How does Eurojury work?

Participating jury members  ranked their top ten songs of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, which were then combined with the results of other jurors from their country to make up one national result. This national result, was then added to those of other countries, to produce the final ‘jury vote’.

The broadcast consisted of two segments, much like the voting sequence of the Eurovision Song Contest, allowing both jury members and fans worldwide to express their opinions and contribute towards the final ranking of this year’s forty-one songs.

This year, two national broadcasters provided the results on behalf of their country. The national broadcasters of Ukraine and Bulgaria have taken part in this years show, despite both having withdrawn from the Eurovision Song Contest 2019.

The juries that voted in this years show were as follows:

The show is available to watch on demand at Eurovoix Showcase for the next 14 days.
