Tonight from 22.15 sends La 1, the first network of broadcaster RTVE, the national final for the Eurovision song contest from 2016.

Objetivo Eurovisión Spain is presented by Anne Igartiburu, who has already presented the Spanish for rounds in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2014. Six artists take part. The phone lines are open from the beginning of the show, and at the end of each song will be shown a list of all the songs.

The televoting counts for 40% of the final result. 30% comes from a three-member jury, consisting of Loreen, the Swedish winner from 2012, Edurne, the Spanish representative of last year, and Carlos Marín, a Spanish Member of the Group Il Divo. The remaining 30% comes from the votes of juries in five European countries, which are not yet announced.
