Re: SLOVENIA 2012
The first stage of the Slovenian selection for Eurovision 2012, Misija Evrovizija, will come to an end today. Five cities have hosted qualification rounds since August 26th. In the coming weeks, the auditions will take place.
According to the Slovenian public broadcaster RTVSLO, auditions will mark the "official start" of the 2012 Eurovision selection. A yet unknown number of hopefuls will qualify from the qualification rounds that have been held over the last five days across the country: Celje, Novo Mesto, Koper, Maribor and -today- Ljubljana.
The exact dates for the coming stages of Misija Evrovizija are yet to be announced. After the auditions, a number of televised knock-out shows will take place. The voting method to be used will be a combination of jury vote and televoting.
The Slovenian national final will retain its traditional name, EMA, and is expected to be held in January.
