Amazing Sound Festival 47
in Tokyo, Japan
Last Winner
What is special about ASF?
It is a small contest with only 19 participants. There was and never will be a recap video, because we are voting on full songs. There will be 2 semifinals with 9 participants and 6 qualifiers each. The last winner is directly qualified for the final, making a total of 13 countries in the final.
Furthermore, the last participant in each semifinal will lose their country and the country will be relegated from the competition. In the old editions the participants would get a new country from the continent of the other relegated country via a poll. In the newer editions, the participants, who lost their country, can send in a song for a country from the other continent of their choice. However, non-participants and other participants may challenge them and possibly take their place in the contest.
