Žolota Poszenka 01

Žolota Poszenka 01 is the first of the Žolota Poszenka series, a brand new music festival which plans to double as Szczesia's national selection for Helios Festival 2. ŽP was organized by Szczesia's public broadcaster TZSZ, and officially aired the grand final episode on 1 April, 2022. Ania Leon reigned victorious after receiving roughly half of the international televote, and accepted the broadcasters invite to represent Szczesia.

Format
The Žolota Poszenka music festival will consist of two shows; the Final and Golden Final. During the first show, six acts will compete head-to-head in duels in which the winner of each duel advances to the much anticipated Golden Final, the duel winners determined by a professional jury panel. In order to prevent a tie-breaking scenario, the panel only consists of an odd number of representatives. In the second show; the Golden Final, the three remaining acts perform again, though this time for all of Helios. The final winner is decided by televoting, and will be prized with the opportunity to represent Szczesia in the upcoming Helios Festival. The shows are scheduled to take place over a weekend's span, the Final on a Saturday and Golden Final on a Sunday.

Competing Entries
Prior to the first HeliosFestival final, TZSZ was open for songwriters to begin submitting entries for the pre-selected six acts. Both the artists and entries will be revealed at a later date, more than likely in a single instance. On 12 March 2022, the same day as Szczesia's official confirmation for HeliosFestival 2, it was reported that the final lineup has been determined.

The Final
The Grand Final took place on 1 April 2022.

The Golden Final
The Golden Final took place on 2 April 2022.
