The Lithuanian Eurovision qualifiers have commenced, with the final set to occur on February 27, where the country's representative for the 2026 contest in Austria will be determined. This year's competition features 40 participants, with eight performers showcased each Saturday in a series of five semifinals that ultimately lead to the selection of the finalists. The decision on which artists advance is made by both the audience and professional juries.

Several artists have already secured their spots in the final based on previous broadcasts, including Rug!le, Noy, Atikin, "Vilnius Voices", "Black Biceps", and Paulina Skrabytė. The national selection process this year is hosted by Gabrielė Martirosian, Rimvydas Černiauskas, and Eglė Kernagytė-Dambrauskė, with the latter joining the hosting team for the first time. Upcoming competitors include Patricija Luščynska, who aims to inspire confidence through her song "Worth It", and other performers like Selene Ice, Lion Ceccah, and more, set to compete on February 14.
