The jury included the famous Andrei Danilko, Jamala and Sergey Tanchinets. Both Danilko and Jamala were participants of the Eurovision Song Contest in different years and adequately represented Ukraine with their performances. Today, they know better than anyone what the audience and the jury expect from the performers. And as Ukraine strives for democracy at all levels, voting for the jury members took place in the state appendix Diya.



As in previous years, the performers tried to convey in their songs not only vocal data, but also the culture of the Ukrainian people.
