Production
A group of celebrities compete anonymously on stage, singing in full costumes over a series of episodes. Each episode, a portion of the competitors are paired off into face-off competitions, in which each will perform a song of his or her choice. From each face-off, the panelists and live audience vote: the winner's safe for the week, while the loser is put up for elimination. At the end of the episode, the losers of the face-offs are then subjected to new votes of the panelists to determine who will not continue; the eliminated singer then enters a special room backstage where it turns its back to the camera, takes off its mask, then turns around to reveal his/her identity.
In addition to the singing competition, hints to each masked singer's identity are offered during the show. Pre-taped interviews are given as hints and feature the celebrities' distorted voices. The panelists are given time to speculate the identity of the singer after the performance and ask them a single question to try and determine their identity.
Costumes
The costumes are partly replicates that were used in other international versions as well as national motives such as Šakotis.
Panelists and host
Popular actor and comedian Giedrius Savickas presents the show.[3] The panel includes Vaidotas Valiukevičius, lead-singer of the The Roop (the countries chosen entry for the cancelled Eurovision Song Contest 2020), journalist Livija Gradauskiene, TV host Indre Kavaliauskaite, fashion designer Aleksandras Pogrebnojus and the basketball players Darju and Krzysztof Lavrinovic.

Guest masks & panelists
On later episodes guest masks made an appearance by performing a song out of competition at the beginning of the show. The panel then gave their guesses before an instant reveal. The guests then occasionally joined the panel for the ongoing episode.
