The final took place on 2 March 2019 where the four entries that qualified from the preceding two semi-finals and the wildcard competed. In the semi-finals, all competing entries were required to be performed in Icelandic; however, entries competing in the final were required to be presented in the language they would compete with in the Eurovision Song Contest. Two entries remained in Icelandic ("Hvað ef ég get ekki elskað?" performed by Friðrik Ómar and "Hatrið mun sigra" performed by Hatari), while the other three entries competed in English. In the first round of voting, votes from a jury panel (50%) and public televoting (50%) determined the top two entries: "Hvað ef ég get ekki elskað?" performed by Friðrik Ómar and "Hatrið mun sigra" performed by Hatari. Jury voting involved international jurors alongside Icelandic members. The top two entries advanced to a second round of voting, the superfinal, where the winner, "Hatrið mun sigra" performed by Hatari, was determined by aggregating the results of the first round to the televoting results of the second round. In addition to the performances of the competing artists, the interval acts featured guest performances by 2018 Icelandic Eurovision entrant Ari Ólafsson and 2018 Eurovision Song Contest runner-up Eleni Foureira, who represented Cyprus with the song "Fuego".
