HOW DOES IT WORK?

The submitted songs have to have been released in the year 2000 or after.

Every country will submit one set of 12, 10 and 8 to 1 points to find the winner of the North Vision Christmas Song Contest!
Depending on the number of participants (more than 28), Semi-finals might be introduced aswell.

Only full members of the North Broadcasting Union will be allowed to compete!

WHO, WHERE AND WHEN?

The contest will be hosted by North Vision legends Geraldine McQueen and Claudia Schanza in the Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden.
The deadline to confirm and submit a song Friday, 17 December 2021 at 22:00CET.
A recap will then be made. Voting will close on 24 December 2021 at 23:59CET and the results will be presented on boxing day, the 26th of December 2021.

WIR HABEN WIEDER EISZEIT!

EISZEIT will be sung by Pauls Jets!

ORF and the Austrian delegation are happy to present their entrant for the Christmas edition of the North Vision Song Contest. Pauls Jets are a Viennese trio that produces songs that are popular among the German-speaking indie and alternative youth. Their first singles ("Üben Üben Üben", "Diese Villa ist verlassen" and "22703") are all hymns of a not so distant utopia and they have triggered an unanimous hype among the German music press like Musikexpress, Radio FM4, TAZ, laut.de and so forth. "The Austrian band of the moment" (Austrian newspaper "Der Standard") is more eclectic, frayed, youthful and anarchistic than its predecessors. The trio around 20-year-old singer Paul Buschnegg hovers between hushed euphoria and vague melancholy. Their debut album – released in March 2019 via Lotterlabel and aptly titled "Alle Songs Bisher" (All songs so far) finally proved they are ready for the big stage. Ever since the release of their second studio album "Highlights zum Einschlafen" and subsequent successes with the songs "Blizzard" and later on "So richtig in Love", which both went viral in the German-speaking countries, proves that they are a noteworthy force in the local music scene.

Ich flieg durch Wien als wäre es Paris
Ich bin vergnügt, ich mag alle Freunde sehen!

EISZEIT is a song that explodes with glee and joy for life and makes one feel at ease in the cold months of the year. It gives off a nostalgic feeling while still maintaining the typical style by Pauls Jets.

SWEDEN TO TAKE PART AT THE FIRST NORH VISION CHRISTMAS SONG CONTEST! 15 December 2021. The Swedish Head of Delegation responsible for the North Vision Song Contest of SVT, Jan Björkman, has now officially confirmed, that the nation will join the very first North Vision Christmas Song Contest, hosted by the Faroese delegation in Sweden. NOVA MILLER TO REPRESENT SWEDEN! Nova Miller was selected to represent Sweden at the first edition of the North Vision Christmas Song Contest. She will be performing her Christmas single "Only When it Snows". Miller previously represented Sweden at the Junior North Vision Song Contest 4 and 9 and won the latter. She also took part in Fantasifestivalen 25, 33 and 35. Timeslot: 1:41+ The Head of Delegation, Jan Björkman, stated the following: "We absolutely enjoy the idea of having a Christmas-themed spin-off of the contest considering the success of the contest itself, but also the rather poor results of Christmas songs within the actual contest. This way we will not face the fear of having Christmas songs being put up to compete against nonfestive songs. In these times, it is a wonderful idea to bring all nations together at Christmas through this contest, it is like everyone gathering around at the table for Christmas. We'd like to lay the focus on the coming together, the inclusiveness, the joy, peace, freedom and love, rather than the competition aspect of the contest. Nonetheless we are very proud to be represented by our talented Nova Miller in the very first edition and we are looking forward for this to become an annual tradition within the North Vision community. Stockholm, Sweden - SVT - 15th of December 2021

LARA SNOW TO REPRESENT ISRAEL!
Lara Snow will represent her home country in the North Vision Christmas Song Contest, which is set to take place in Sweden. She will perform the song "I Like Snow" featuring Safra.

 LARA SNOW 


Lara Snow, also known as Valery Sherman, is a singer/songwriter from Tel Aviv that has been compared to electropop artists such as Grimes and CHVRCHES. Despite desert origins, she embodies the cold of snow: her singular voice takes one from softly sung lyrics to rebellious rap phrases, all held together with dramatic, dance-evoking beats. The combination of these forces creates a mesmerizing crossover. Working in collaboration with drummer Jonatan Harpak, the two are known for their energetic, street vibe live performances.

"I LIKE SNOW"

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
