All episodes of the series are broadcast live.

Format
Famous celebrities perform songs that they choose for three months. Unique, created especially for the show costumes of animals and mythical creatures hide the identity of the participants at each of their performances on stage. Neither the show team nor even the friends and families of the participants know their identities. All masks are guarded and protected with exceptional security measures. Each week the participants are divided into groups and enter into a musical battle with each other. Before each performance are revealed clues to help the audience discover them. Additionally, the detectives of the show help the spectators, who give their assumptions after each performance.

Viewers vote for the performances of the participants. The one who collects the smallest votes drops out and takes off the mask. The winner is the one who takes off the mask last.
