On 11 September 2011, LRT confirmed Lithuania's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan, although the broadcaster struggled with finacial problems.[1] On 14 October 2011, LRT called for songs for their national final.[2] Entries can be submitted until 2 January 2012. The broadcaster will internally select a number of songs to participate in the televised shows. The songs published before September 1st are not eligible to enter the selection, and the acts can not feature more than six people on stage.
On 6 November 2011, LRT announced more details on their national selection. A number of semi-finals will be aired, followed by a final show. A combination of jury voting and televoting enjoying 50% stake each will be used. This voting rule will not apply in the "Super-final", where the Lithuanian representative for Baku will be decided via jury voting alone.[3]
Lithuania will perform in the first or second semi-final, held on 22 or 24 May receptively.
