Earlier today, Spanish broadcaster RTVE revealed the 30 wildcard acts for its Eurovision 2017 national selection. Waiting for fans who wish to participate in the process is almost over as the online voting starts in a few hours.
RTVE revealed the final 30 wildcard acts today. Apart from this online round, some acts will be selected internally by the broadcaster and qualify for the national final straight away. The 30 wildcard acts on the other hand will be voted for online (one vote per IP address).
The voting begins tomorrow, Friday 2nd December. The top 10 entries will be narrowed down to three by an expert jury and the three finalists will eventually compete for a single place in the Objetivo Eurovisión Grand Final.
The final 30 songs are available to listen to on the Eurovision section of the RTVE website.
