LTV, Latvia’s national broadcaster, will use the Supernova format to select its Eurovision 2024 act once more. As announced via its official account on X, 108 entries from both domestic and foreign creators were submitted for the national selection. When compared to the 2023 edition, Supernova 2024 received thirteen fewer entries.
Noslēgusies dziesmu pieteikšana @LatvijasTV konkursam "Supernova" – Eirovīzijas nacionālajai atlasei iesniegtas 108 dziesmas. 🤩 pic.twitter.com/nlG2RBw47a
AgneseŠtrause-Kubliņa, the head of LTV ‘s youth and entertainment programs mentions:
We have received 108 unique and personal compositions in a wide variety of musical genres, which proves that music is a universal language that unites us all. The response of musicians to participation in the competition and the annual active involvement of the audience in voting proves how important it is for each of us that Latvia is represented in honor at the Eurovision Song Contest, which is watched by millions of viewers around the world, with a song that sounds bright and convincing on the biggest stage in Europe
The jury will evaluate the originality, arrangement, message, and relevance to current market trends in selecting the songs for “Supernova,” which will be broadcasted live on television. Moreover, the vocal abilities of the musicians, their previous achievements in the music industry and their potential for future success will also be taken into account.
The participants in Supernova 2024 should be disclosed in January. Then, we will first watch the live performances of the artists in TV shows in February. During the final, the winner of the selection will be decided by the public along with a jury. Supernova 2024’s exact format and number of shows are still to be announced.
Latvia was represented at Eurovision 2023 by Sudden Lights with their song “Aijā“. Sudden Lights only finished 11th in the first semi-final, marking the sixth-consecutive non qualification for Latvia.
Latvia has joined the list of countries confirming their participation for Eurovision 2024. The first details for their selection process have been revealed today. First of all, Latvia will start their search for their new Eurovision representative through their national final Supernova. The country has renewed for another year Supernova as their national final for Eurovision.
Supernova 2024
Starting from tomorrow until December 1st, 2023, the applications are open. Artists can send their proposals via public broadcaster’s LTV website. LTV will announce the final list of participants for Supernova 2024 on January 2024. Following the first announcement of the songs, the wishful representatives will compete in a semi-final and a grand final that will take place in February. A split vote from the audience and a jury will decide the winner of Supernova which will represent Latvia in Malmö.
This will be Latvia’s 24th Eurovision representative. The Baltic country won the contest in 2002 with Marie N’s I Wanna. Unfortunately, Latvia has struggled to qualify for the final in recent times. Last time we watched Latvia in the final was in 2016.
Who will represent Latvia in 2024? Will they break the non-qualification streak?

The search for Eurovision 2024 begins!
Latvian broadcaster LTV has revealed the jury members who voted in Supernova, the country’s national final, determining 50% of the result to select the Baltic country’s representatives for Eurovision 2023.
The eight-member jury consisted of the following six Latvians and two international jurors :
Anna Platpīre – LTV content editor
Arvīds Babris – Director of LTV
Aija Auškāpa – Director of the Prāta vētra record label
Karīna Tropa – Singer and vocal coach
Maija Sējāne – Singer and music producer
Magnuss Eriņš – Radio personality and DJ
Gediminas Jaunius (Lithuania) – TV director and producer
Edward van de Vendel (Netherlands) – Journalist
The jury awarded its 12 points to the band Sudden Lights, who won Supernova 2023 representing Latvia in Liverpool with the song Aijā.
Latvia narrowly missed out on qualifying for the Eurovision 2023 Grand Final by finishing 11th in the First Semi-Final with 34 points, just 3 points behind Serbia. It is worth noting that Sudden Lights received 8 points from the “rest of the world” vote in the First Semi-Final.

This article gets updated in real-time, all you need to do is hit the refresh button on your browser!
So stay tuned to this article as we update it with all details, preparing you for what you will see in the Semi-Final today May 9th, at 21:00 CEST.
The Show
The show opens with a video of a young Liverpudlian boy traveling across the city telling his family, friends, neighbours (and some special guests!) that Eurovision is in Liverpool. The young boy dances yogether with a young girl on the Eurovision stage.
Julia Sanina performs “Mayak” by The Hardkiss. Translating from the Ukrainian for Lighthouse, the performance: “symbolises in many ways how the UK is United by Music with Ukraine through the hosting the 2023 Contest on behalf of the 2022 winners.”
Spice Girl Mel C‘ voice introduces to the stage the hosts of the contest to viewers across the globe. The hosts of the show are the female trio of superstars Julia Sanina of The Hardkiss, Hannah Waddingham, and Alesha Dixon.
The Competing Countries – LIVE COMMENTARY
Norway: Alessandra – Queen of Kings
Alessandra Mele is the chosen one that starts the show of the First Semi-Final, with a very energetic show. It has a quite dark energy, while there are not many changes from the MGP. She was vocally good but not perfect, though she is certain to finish in the top 5 of the Semi-Final.
Malta: The Busker – Dance (Our Own Party)
The Busker, performing in the unlucky 2nd position, give us a slightly updated version of their MESC performance, with almost identical camera cuts and transitions. A fun and colorful number that will probably struggle to make it to the Final.
Serbia: Luke Black – Samo Mi Se Spava
Luke is initially laying on a white flower at the intro of the song. Definitely a dark performance, while his vocal capabilities are amazing and it shows. The dystopian-alternate reality-trapped in a video game show of Luke is definitely going to be appreciated in the Grand Final too.
Latvia: Sudden Lights – Aijā
A flawless performance from Sudden Lights once again. The staging that the Latvian delegation created, is absolutely beautiful and fitting for the song. It’s atmospheric and warm. It’s such a shame if the incredible musicianship and the sweet song of the Latvian rockers won’t be appreciated.
First Break
Alesha Dixon chats with young local children and raps a small improvised song about Eurovision.
Portugal: Mimicat – Ai Coração
Mimicat serves us a bourlesque performance with flawless vocals and undeniable charisma. She and her dancers are all clothed in red, the color of passion and love. The performance is definitely energetic, but this is not a guaranteed qualifier in the Grand Final.
Ireland: Wild Youth – We Are One
The performance is bathed in a golden light, but unfortunately it is not going to change Wild Youth’s fate reagrding qualification in the Grand Final. Vocally, the singer is really weak, avoids to sing parts of the song and looks uncomfortable at times. I can’t imagine Ireland qualifying this year.
Croatia: Let 3 – Mama ŠČ!
The wildest performance yet! It is full of weird sounds, psychedelic leds and clever “SC” on screen graphics that definetely stands out. The fact that the results of the Semi Final are 100% televote should help Let 3 make it to the Grand Final.
Switzerland: Remo Forrer – Watergun
Here we have another dark act, this time by Switzerland. Remo Forrer is a great performer with broad vocal capabilites, while he is being accompanied by some dancers. The performance is beautiful and atmospheric, “Watergun” has definitely have some chances for qualification in the final.
Israel: Noa Kirel – Unicorn
Noa starts her performance inside her rectangular prop and is then joined by her dancers. She is vocally good, but not perfect of anything. Her camera angles are nice but could support the song a little better. Without a doubt, Israel is qualifying and is finishing in the top 5 or maybe in the top 3 of the Semi-Final.
Moldova: Pasha Parfeni – Soarele şi Luna
Pasha is telling his folk tale about marriage under the moon in the most tribalistic way possible. Vocally he is great and is serving an energetic performance bathed in warm red light. Moldova is easily qualifying in the Grand Final once again.
Second Break
Sweden: Loreen – Tattoo
Eurovision 2023’is big favourite proves itself once again. Loreen is a vocal powerhouse and the staging is stunning, while not better than Melodifestivalen. It’s not a question that Sweden is flying in the Grand Final, and Loreen is most probably making the second double win in the history of the contest. Do you believe that Sweden is getting it’s seventh win?
Azerbaijan: TuralTuranX – Tell Me More
The twin brothers from Azerbaijan are inspired by The Beatles and it shows. We have a sweet performance that starts in black and white, then gets back in color. Unfortunately there is no chance of qualifying for Azerbaijan this year, because this act is not strong enough to get voted compared to others.
Czechia: Vesna – My Sister’s Crown
Vesna have worked hard compared to their pre-party performances. They are dressed in pink and are vocally great, that’s why they won’t only fly in the final, but have very serious chances for finishing in the top 5 or the top 3 of the Semi-Final as well.
Break, about dancing
Netherlands: Mia Nicolai & Dion Cooper – Burning Daylight
A very atmospheric and quite performance from Mia Nicolai and Dion Cooper. They are a vocally great, while they stand out due to their beautiful simplicity as well as because of the fact that they are only duet. The Netherlands have some serious chances of qualifying, while it’s not guaranteed.
Finland: Käärijä – Cha Cha Cha
And here we have the craziest closure possible for the First Semi-Final! We most probably have the Televote winner of not only the First Semi-Final but of the entire contest as well. Käärijä is nowhere near a vocal powerhouse, in fact he is very weak vocally, but the performance is not intended to be vocally-dependent anyway. It’s meant to be crazy, energetic and colorful!
Song recap
Interval Act
Wordwide superstar Rita Ora performs a medley of her hits, as well as a world premiere of ‘Praising You’. Alyosha (Ukraine 2010) and Rebecca Fergusson perform together a cover of “Ordinary World”.

BIG 5 Performances
France: La Zarra – Évidemment
La Zarra stands on a huge platform that is covered by a sparkling dress. The dress falls and revelas that the top of the platform looks like a discoball, sending light everywhere in the arena. The performance has great camera cuts and vocals. Near the end, the French flag appears in the background lights and a huge curtain of fireworks falls from the ceiling.
Germany: Lord of The Lost – Blood & Glitter
Lord of the Lost deliver a professional show full of energy, very similar to their performance in the national final. The singer is vocally amazing and the song finishes with lots of pyro. Germany should avoid the last places in the Grand Final.
Italy: Marco Mengoni – Due Vite
Marco wears a sparkly shirt and leather pants. Two dancers are behind him on a staircase, falling on a trampoline, in front of the eclipsed moon. However throughout the performance the focus remains on him and his impreccable vocals. A very touching entry that could do better than expected.
The Results
Martin Osterdahl executive producer of Eurovision Song Contest 2022, declares that he is happy to see that we now have a valid result!
Here we have a big change, as the 15 competing acts stand on stage, without their delegations, waiting for the result. The camera shows them one by one, as the presenters announce the qualifiers. After the first 5 qualifiers are announced, Alesha interviews them backstage and then we learn the 5 remaining qualifiers.
The ten countries that (virtually) qualify to the finals for the purposes of the rehearsal were the following:
Croatia, Moldova, Portugal, Serbia, The Netherlands, Norway, Latvia, Finland, Switzerland, Czechia
Closing the televised show, we will get to watch a recap of the ten finalist songs.

(Updated Live)
We are just a few hours away from the first Eurovision 2023 semi-final and the betting tables are on fire, with the odds constantly changing.
Your favourite column will bring you everything that has changed in the last few days, both in terms of the case-win, and in terms of qualifying from tonight’s show to Saturday’s final.
Top 10
New shuffles occurred yesterday after the first and second Dress Rehearsal on the betting tables. Nevertheless, one thing remained and will remain constant: Sweden is the heavy favourite to win the 67th Eurovision Song Contest. The Swedish victory is being played at some bookmakers at under 1.60, with the maximum available odds being 1.75.
In second place, with a slight downward trend at some companies, is Finland. Käärijä and “Cha Cha Cha” are Loreen‘s rival in this year’s contest, with Finland’s win odds ranging between 2.75 and 3.75.
Ukraine and France are in third and fourth place, with similar odds. The maximum odds on offer for both countries to win return up to 15 times the stake of anyone who believes in them. The top five is rounded off by Spain, whose odds to win range between 7 and 21.
Sixth place Norway is played at 26, seventh place Israel at 34, eighth place Italy at 56, ninth place United Kingdom at 61, and tenth place Austria at 56. It is worth noting that when one observes the betting tables, one can see that with the exception of Sweden, all the countries in the top ten are trending downwards, with their win odds going up.
1st Semifinal
As we mentioned at the beginning of the article, today’s article will also deal with the chances of the countries in the first semi-final, according to the bookers.
Looking at the betting tables of the first semi-final, the bookmakers almost take the qualification of 5+1 countries for granted. Sweden, Finland, Israel, Norway and the Czech Republic are the firm favourites to qualify today, with the odds of qualification not exceeding 1.05. Moldova are also largely assured of a place in the final and are being offered slightly higher at around 1.10.
Beyond that, Serbia seem to be in a league of their own as they are seen as the seventh favourite to qualify for the grand final on May 13. Luke Black‘s qualification is offered at odds of around 1.30, with a clear distance between both the leading and trailing countries.
Four countries will battle it out for the last three ‘tickets’ to the Eurovision 2023 grand final, according to bookers. Portugal, Switzerland, Croatia and the Netherlands have their own very high chances of qualifying, with Portugal being played between 1.33 and 1.44, Switzerland between 1.29 and 1.44, Croatia between 1.4 and 1.5 and the Netherlands between 1.53 and 1.8. The Netherlands are in a more difficult position compared to the other three, but their qualification odds are anything but a betting opportunity.
Malta, Latvia, Ireland and Azerbaijan are seen as underdogs for qualification, but in any case the odds on offer could be a lure for those who believe in the qualification of any of these countries. In particular, Latvia‘s odds, which are trending downwards, might be the value for money option of the day for those who like to bet on high odds.
Regarding the winner of the first semi-final, things are clear. The absolute favourite to win the first semi-final is Finland, which is offered at odds between 1.3 and 1.53. The dynamics of Käärijä and “Cha Cha Cha“, as well as the fact that the crowd decides this year in the two semi-finals are key reasons why the Finnish victory is offered at such low odds.
Second favourite is Sweden, which is being offered at odds between 2.5 and 3.5, making it a value for money choice, especially for those backing the heavy favourite for the 67th Eurovision Song Contest. Otherwise, all other countries are offered at much higher odds. Norway, who are the third favourite, are being played at 26, Israel at 34, as is the Czech Republic.
Which countries do you think will qualify from the first semi-final to Saturday’s grand final?
