USA – Christer Björkman assured everyone that the American version of the Eurovision Song Contest is underway. The contest will see acts from all 50 US states compete against each other for the win, through several rounds.

“We are, at the moment, negotiating about it and it’s very close. There’s nothing signed yet… it takes a lot of lawyers and a lot of hours for them to work out every detail in the contract and that’s what’s actually happening right now but if everything works out, we will be moving there as soon as they let us in and we will, hopefully, be on air with the first American Song Contest ever in 2022.

We have plans for arranging specific packages for Eurofans to come over and visit us once we are up and running.”

SO FAR

The contest will have all 50 states of the United States participating, each performer selected by the American Song Contest Academy, along with public votes. Performers can be in solos, duos, or groups of up to 6 performers large.

There will be several pre-qualification rounds, followed by two semi-finals, and then a grand final. The voting process is currently unknown, as is how the COVID-19 pandemic will affect the production of the show.

Currently, no broadcasters have signed up to air the contest.

ANDORRA 🇦🇩 Following last years efforts by Susanne Georgi it seems now that the government of Andorra sees positive a potential return to the Eurovision Song Contest, a show the popularity of which could put the country back to the international map. Ministry of Tourism would consider such an option under a specified strategy while Ciutadans Compromesos Party is also positive to such an option. As expected the opposition party is not seeing Eurovision as a could option for the country. 7 0
