Three songs from each heat qualified for the monthly quarter-final: two songs chosen by televoting, and one song chosen by an expert jury. In the event that the jury choice was also among the top two songs in the televoting, the third-placed song also qualified. In the quarter-final, the top three songs chosen by televoting qualified for the semi-final.
Sahara were scheduled to perform in the first heat but withdrew, hoping that they would receive a wildcard into the semi-final instead. Bobi Kokera, Blei & Sunnie were forced to withdraw from the quarter-final due to illness.
