Tonight, we get the second semi-final of this year’s race to represent Portugal in Eurovision. As was the case last week, the broadcast will come to us live from the RTP studios in Lisbon.
The eight competing acts for tonight will perform in the following running order:
- Lara Laquiz – O Lugar
- Dan Riverman – Lava
- Mariana Bragada – Mar Doce
- João Couto – O Jantar
- Madrepaz – Mundo A Mudar
- Surma – Pugna
- Mila Dores – Debaixo Do Luar
- NBC – Igual A Ti
The grand final of the Portuguese national selection show for Eurovision will take place on the 2nd of March live from Portimão Arena, where up to 4.000 attendees will be able to watch how Claudia Pascoal & Isaura will pass the crown to the next act flying the country’s flag in the contest in May.
In both semi-finals, a professional jury and the televoters will get a 50% say each in which entries qualify to the final on March the 2nd. In the final, however, seven regional juries will decide the outcome alongside the Portuguese televoters.
You can find the hosts of the entire show below:
1st Semifinal: Sónia Araújo and Tânia Ribas de Oliveira- 2nd Semifinal: Jorge Gabriel and José Carlos Malato
- Final: Vasco Palmeirim and Filomena Cautela
Watch the second semi-final of Festival Da Canção 2019 live from 22.00 CET on our Multi-Window live feed.
