At EuroMusic Song Contest
Slovakia first had to attempt in the semi finals. They performed as eighth, following Hungary and preceding Germany. They received 11 points, and finished 15th in the semi-final. This was not enough to qualify for the final.

After the results were published by the EBU, the Slovak broadcaster announced to withdraw from the contest.

Voting
The voting during the final consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Slovakia awarded by Slovakia in the semi final and the final.
