Today is Croatia’s turn to pick their contestant. Last year, the country qualified for the first time in the grand final since 2017. Dora 2024 is the selection process to pick the lucky artist who will get the honor to represent the country in Malmö. The outcome of the final will be determined by a balanced blend of public votes and evaluations from a jury comprising four national panels – Osijek, Rijeka, Split, and Zagreb – alongside four international panels – Germany, Iceland, Italy, and Ukraine. Each regional and international jury will consist of three music industry professionals. Both viewers and juries will allocate a total of 232 points. Following the Eurovision Song Contest format, each jury group will assign points in the range of 1 to 8, along with 10 and 12 points. The viewer vote will be determined by the proportion of votes garnered by each song through telephone and SMS voting
