Eesti Laul 2027 has revealed its twelve finalists who will compete for the chance to represent Estonia at the Eurovision Song Contest. These artists are now set to battle it out in the grand final on January 30th, 2027, at the Unibet Arena in Tallinn.

Estonian broadcaster ERR has officially announced the twelve acts that will compete in the Grand Final of Eesti Laul 2027. The announcement was made during the popular Estonian TV show ‘Ringvaade’ on Thursday, October 22nd.

A total of 155 entries were submitted to the competition, with a 40-member professional jury meticulously selecting the final twelve. The jury evaluated the songs without knowing the artists or songwriters, ensuring a fair and merit-based selection process.

The Eesti Laul 2027 Finalists are:

  • Daniel Levi – “Dust”
  • Jaagup Tuisk & WANDA – “kesk öö musta merd”
  • Johanna Elise – “Getaway Car”
  • Kerli Kivilaan – “When The War Is Over”
  • Laura – “Metsapiiga”
  • m-els x J-Run – “HUSH HUSH”
  • OLLIE – “Sad Every Day”
  • Pale Alison x Minimal Wind – “Superhuman”
  • PANØRAMA, Vemka, Hans Markus – “Reflection”
  • Rita Ray – “Don’t You Agree”
  • Zetod feat. hellika – “Kipõ-Kipõ”
  • Traffic – “Laava”

The lineup features a blend of returning fan favourites and fresh talent. Notable names include Laura, who has represented Estonia twice at Eurovision (2005 with Suntribe and 2017 with Koit Toome), and Kerli Kivilaan, a member of Vanilla Ninja, who represented Estonia in 2026. OLLIE, a consistent presence in recent Eesti Laul editions, also makes a return.

The Eesti Laul 2027 Grand Final will take place on Saturday, January 30th, 2027, at the Unibet Arena in Tallinn. The winner will be determined through a two-round voting system. In the first round, a combination of 50% jury votes and 50% public votes will select three acts to advance to the ‘Super Final’. The ultimate winner, and Estonia’s representative for Eurovision 2027 in Burgas, Bulgaria, will then be chosen solely by public televoting in the Super Final.
