second semi-final, to be held on 24 May 2012, and was scheduled to perform in the second half of the show. The running order for the semi-finals was decided through another draw on 20 March 2012 and Croatia was set to perform in position 10, following the entry from Slovenia and before the entry from Sweden. The two semi-finals and the final were broadcast in Croatia on HRT 1 with commentary by Duško Ćurlić. The Croatian spokesperson, who announced the Croatian votes during the final, was Nevena Rendeli. Semi-final Nina Badrić took part in technical rehearsals on 16 and 19 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 23 and 24 May.
