Final
The final was held on 26 September 2010 at the LRT TV Studios in Vilnius, where 12 participants competed instead of the initially-planned 10, as this was the first time that a qualify-rule was broken due to the first semi-final having seven finalists. The winner was chosen in two rounds of voting. In the first round the top 3 were chosen by televoting (50%) and a nine-member "expert" jury (50%), while in the second round the winner was chosen by the "expert" jury.[1]
