The above acts qualified for the Grand Final which will be held on 23 February.

The second semi-final will be held next Saturday on 16 February and it will have the same format with eight new participants and only three finalists to progress.
Six finalists will take part in the Grand Final but only one will represent Ukraine in May in Tel Aviv (Israel).
