Widbir 2019 ( Ukrainian Відбір 2019 , English transcription Vidbir 2019 ) took place on February 23, 2019 and was the Ukrainian preliminary decision for the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv ( Israel ).
MARUV emerged as the winner with the song Siren Song and would therefore have represented Ukraine in Tel Aviv. Due to contractual complications of the station UA: PBC, MARUV withdrew from participation on February 25, 2019, whereupon the station announced renegotiations with other participants of the preliminary decision and the interpreter and the song for the competition in Tel Aviv are now to be decided internally . Since they could not come to an agreement with another performer over the course of the following week, UA: PBC withdrew its participation in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 on February 27, 2019.
format
concept
UA: PBC uses the same concept as last year . In the first part, auditions are held throughout Ukraine. In the second part the three live shows follow. A total of between 14 and 20 contributions should again take part in the show. These are divided into two semi-finals, with three participants each qualifying for the final. Six participants will compete in the final. All three shows are voted 50% by jury voting and 50% by televoting.
