The national final took place over 12 weeks and involved 20 artists and 16 songs competing in two different competitive streams.

Performing during the show in position 7, "Attention" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final.

[1] The nation’s best placing in the contest was sixth, which it achieved in 2006 with the song "We Are the Winners" performed by LT United.

In the 2013 contest, "Something" performed by Andrius Pojavis qualified to the final where the song scored 17 points and placed 22nd.

LRT confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest on 3 October 2013 and announced the organization of "Eurovizijos" dainų konkurso nacionalinė atranka, which would be the national final to select Lithuania's entry for Copenhagen.

The 12 shows took place at the LRT studios in Vilnius and were hosted by Simona Nainė and Arūnas Valinskas.

[5] The first show was a jubilee concert where 15 of the 20 competing artists participated in a celebration of past Lithuanian Eurovision songs and no elimination took place.

[13] On 2 October 2013, LRT opened two separate submission forms: one for artists and another for songwriters to submit their songs.

[16] The ten elimination shows of the competition aired between 14 December 2013 and 15 February 2014 and featured the twenty competing artists.

[18] For the ninth elimination show, LRT opted to delay the announcement of the results until 10 February 2014 after conducting an investigation in regards to voting fraud.

The show was originally scheduled to air on 22 February 2014; however, it was postponed due to LRT broadcasting live coverage of Euromaidan in Ukraine.

The members of the Lithuanian panel consisted of Sigutė Stonytė (opera singer) and Lauras Lučiūnas (producer).

The concert featured guests Jurga Šeduikytė, Ramūnas Rudokas, Marius Jampolskis, Pop Ladies and Sasha Song, and raised 48,000 LTL from the public donations.

[47] According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final.

On 20 January 2014, an allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in.

[55][56] The dancer joining Vilija was Šarūnas Kirdeikis, while three backing vocalists were also on stage: Eglė Gadeikytė, Algė Matekūnaitė and Lina Žilinskaitė.

[58] At the end of the show, Lithuania was not announced among the top 10 entries in the second semi-final and therefore failed to qualify to compete in the final.

The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency.

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.
