The SuperStar talent competition progressed through several stages in late 2026. The SuperVýber phase began with fifty contestants performing in a vineyard near Znojmo. During this stage, a five member judging panel, including guest judge Ben Cristovao, evaluated participants. Contestants could earn a “platinum ticket” for immediate advancement to the top 20 by receiving five unanimous votes, a feat achieved by contestant Pavel Pavel.

Following the selection of the top 20, the competition moved to a semifinal round that narrowed the field to ten finalists. This selection utilized a hybrid method: four contestants were awarded “Diamond tickets” by the jury, while six others were selected via viewer votes. The semifinals marked a return to live broadcasting, a format not used in the competition since 2018. The grand finale is scheduled to take place on December 9 at the O2 Arena in Prague.
