The stage directors for "River" will be Mikołaj Dobrowolski and Tomasz Klimek. The overall mood, outfits and scenario will be changed and made much bigger. The designer Palomo Spain (who has worked with international names such as Beyoncé) will be in charge of her stage outfit.

She will be joined by two male dancers on stage whereas Marvin Dietmann and Dan Shipton will serve as the creative directors. Marvin Dietmann will serve as the stage director. Regardless, the cowboy fight included in his national selection performance will be removed. The Rasmus will bring something different to Turin from what they did at UMK 2022.
