Due to the success they had in Tel Aviv, it looks like Switzerland wants to repeat the success they had this year in The Netherlands next year. An Audience Panel and an International Jury expert will once again be used in order to select the Swiss Entry. The Audience Panel was a success in last year’s selection, with 6,100 applications being made to be a part of the panel, whilst the International Jury expert included Eurovision artists such as Ruth Lorenzo Pascual, Tinkara Kovac, and Ovi. The International Jury Expert will count towards 50% of the selection, whilst the Audience Panel will count towards the other 50% in order to select the Swiss act. Songwriters, Producers, Artists, and Lyricists are able to submit their entries from September 2, until September 16 at noon.
