format
concept
The preliminary decision will again consist of two semi-finals and one final in 2020. A total of 24 songs will again take part in the semifinals. 12 songs are presented per semi-final, of which the best six qualify for the final. As in 2019 , the semi-finals will take place in the sports complex of the University of Tartu . The final will be held at the Saku Suurhall in Tallinn . The first five finalists will be decided 50% by televoting and 50% by jury voting. The sixth finalist will be decided in a second separate round by 100% televoting. In the final, twelve participants compete against each other in two voting rounds. 50% televoting and 50% jury voting will then determine the three best participants who will take part in the superfinal . In the superfinal , only the audience decides the winner and thus the Estonian contribution to the 2020 Song Contest.
Singer Karl-Erik Taukar and actor Tõnis Niinemets will lead the shows.
