Back in November, Estonian broadcaster ERR announced the 20 acts that would be competing in the 2018 edition of Eesti Laul, the competition which decides which act will be heading to Eurovision. Over two days, the broadcaster slowly released the songs that will be competing through the ERR Eesti Laul stream.
The songs were revealed between 10:00 to 21:00 EET, and similar to last year, the acts were also joined by TV host Mai Palling and Vanilla Ninja guitarist Piret Järvais, who would chat with the artists as their songs were revealed.
The semi-finals will take place on the 10th and 17th of February, with the final to take place on the 3rd of March. Here is each semi-final with the running order
