Information[]
The edition was announced one day after the broadcaster confirmed their participation in the 10th edition. The format of the past two editions was kept and only one final was held with ten acts – nine Danish acts and one foreign act. The edition started on 8 August 2014 and finished on 18 August 2014 with Tim Schou being the winner.
The selection consisted of only one final and was held in Gigantium, Aalborg. The voters were international juries divided into several groups. The competing entries were chosen by the broadcaster after several artists submitted songs, including artists from neighbor countries. However, only ten songs were selected including only one foreign song. The selection returned to the standard rule and songs in the English language were allowed, unlike in the previous edition.
