The Belorussian broadcaster is expected to hold auditions on February 4th, where all of the acts will be judged by a jury specially made up for their Eurovision selection. The jury will consist of people from the broadcaster and people within arts and culture in Belarus.
The national final is expected to take place no later than March 8th. The winner will be decided by 100% jury vote, with each jury member scoring each song between 0 and 10 points straight after their performance. At the end, the act with the highest score will be awarded the ticket to Tel Aviv. In the event of a tie break, the winner will be decided by a second vote from the jury members.
