Voting Mechanism of Benidorm Fest 2024
The voting system remains similar to previous editions. Once again, it consists of 50% weight through a professional jury (national and international). Beatriz Luengo will be the jury president and spokesperson for the points awarded to the Benidorm Fest 2024 songs. Each member of the jury will award 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, and 2 points to the semifinal candidates, and the points received by each will be added to the scoreboard. The complete list of jurors is as follows:
- Beatriz Luengo (SPOKESPERSON): singer, songwriter, actress, and dancer. Winner of two Latin Grammy Awards.
- Ángela Carrasco: singer-songwriter, actress, and singing teacher. She rose to fame after starring in the musical “Jesus Christ Superstar,” where she played Mary Magdalene alongside Camilo Sesto.
- Carlos Baute: singer, songwriter, actor, and Spanish-Venezuelan presenter. He has recently been part of the RTVE program “Incredible Duos.”
- Guille Milkyway: Singer, DJ, songwriter, and music producer. Leader of the group La Casa Azul, which competed in Salvemos Eurovisión 2008, the Spanish preselection.
- Lee Smithurst, head of the United Kingdom delegation at the Eurovision Song Contest and executive producer of the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool.
- David Tserunyan, head of the Armenian delegation at the Eurovision Song Contest, member of the Eurovision reference group, and executive producer of the 2022 Junior Eurovision Song Contest in Yerevan, Armenia.

- Nicoline Refsing, scenographer and artistic director of the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest in Copenhagen, Denmark. She was responsible for the staging of Melani with “Marte” at the 2019 Junior Eurovision Song Contest.
The remaining 50% is divided between televoting and demoscopic voting, 25% each. In the event of a tie, the winner is the artist/author who receives the highest score from the professional jury.
These two sectors of the voting emit their points. Each member of the demoscopic panel ranks their favorites, while the public votes for their favorite candidates. In both cases, their points are transformed into weights and distributed proportionally: 40, 35, 30, 28, 25, 22, 20, and 16 points.
