Today, Česká Televize revealed the names of the 7 artists that will compete in the ESCZ 2022!
ESCZ is the national selection process that is used by the country in order to select its participant for the upcoming Eurovision event. This year will be the fourth time that this method will be used!
Format
From the submitted songs, the public broadcaster selects the best of them (8 for 2018 and 2019, 7 for 2020 and 2022) and opens a public online voting through the official mobile app of the Eurovision (25% of the final result). At the end of the voting, some jury points are added (50% of the final result), along with the Public voting from Czech Republic (25% of the final result) and the final result is announced!
This national final has brought Czech Republic its best two results, with Mikolas Joseph placing 6th in 2018 and Lake Malawi coming 11th in 2019!
