The opening ceremony and the interval acts were also broadcast live from Warsaw, with, according to the EBU, "all presenters and necessary crew socially distancing." There was a small audience present. During the interval acts, Viki Gabor sang two songs: her winning song "Superhero", and the 2019 adult Eurovision winning song "Arcade" with Roksana Węgiel and the 2019 Eurovision winner Duncan Laurence. Alicja Szemplińska sang Empires, the intended Polish entry for the cancelled Eurovision Song Contest 2020. The show’s co-host, Ida Nowakowska, performed as a backup dancer for Alicja.
