The live show from Fever Music Centre lasted longer than scheduled, while the webcast of the show was overloaded due to the interest from abroad. During the programme several artists gave a guest performance; Chiara (Malta), Glennis Grace (the Netherlands), Marian van de Wal (Andorra), Constantinos (Cyprus) and Angelica Agurbash (Belarus) performed their Eurovision Song Contest songs, while Alcazar performed a compilation of several songs. Zeljko Joksimovic, who represented Serbia & Montenegro last year, performed his runner-up song Lane moje once again, together with the Ad Hoc Orchestra.
