Bunker - TOP 80

All 80 contestants who made it through auditions were allocated to Bunkr Drnov - Muzeum protivzdušné obrany (Drnov Bunker - Museum of Air Defense).

In the first round, the girls were called in groups of five to sing a cappella in front of the judges. Each girl had a few seconds to sing and after the entire group performed, they found out whether they were eliminated or they would continue in the next round.

The boys did not get to perform at all, the judges told them they all advanced to the next round, due to the smaller number of boys in the contest. Only five boys joined girls in this round.

The next round took place at the same night. All contestants have to perform songs of their choice in front of the judges. Not all contestants perform because some had impressed the judges before.

Divadlo (Theater) - TOP 48

48 contestants who made it through Bunker were allocated to Karlovy Vary Theater and they were divided into groups of 4. They have one day to learn song chosen by producers. All groups have session with vocal coach.
