REVISED: Sixteen acts line up for Croatian Eurovision show

DORA 2020

Croatian broadcaster HRT has revised the line-up for the 2020 Dora competition. The winner gets to travel to Rotterdam and take part in the Eurovision Song Contest.

The 2020 Croatian national final takes place on Saturday, 29 February at the Marino Cvetkovic Hall in Opatija. The 1200 seat venue should be full to the rafters.

Names? Well, they are listed below and the one that sticks out to Eurovision fans should have been one Goran Karan, who represented Croatia in 2000 with Ostani, but he withdrew his song after I began work on an article (bastard) citing concerns that the song had already been performed.

An updated list of participating artists has been announced.

  2. Edi Abazi – Coming home
  3. Mia Negovetić – When it Comes to You
  4. Colonia – Zidina
  5. Zdenka Kovačićek – Love, Love, Love
  6. Lorenzo feat Dino Purić & Reper Iz Sobe – Vrati Se Iz Irske
  7. Jure Brkljača – Hajde nazovi me
