PORTUGAL
The final will take place on 12 March 2021, at RTP’s Studio 1 in Lisbon, and will be hosted by Filomena Cautela and Vasco Palmeirim. The ten finalists will be judged by means of a televoting and a jury composed of representatives from the seven statistical regions of Portugal (Lisbon, North, Central, Alentejo, Algarve, Madeira and the Azores). Their rankings, drafted and combined using the same system adopted for the semi-finals, will determine the Portuguese representative for Eurovision, with the televoting score taking precedence in the event of a tie in the first place.
