Southvision Song Contest 17

Presented by the SBU Council and Corporación Venezolana de Televisión

After such a successful continuation of the contest in

Bordeaux, SouthVision will finally return to South America since the

fifth edition. But this time, as

Elena Rose won the contest back then with her song “Coco” , we will enjoy our journey in

Venezuela instead and experience the power of ...

Caracas

Caracas, officially Santiago de León de Caracas, abbreviated as CCS, is the capital and largest city of

Venezuela, and the center of the Metropolitan Region of Caracas (or Greater Caracas). Caracas is located along the Guaire River in the northern part of the country, within the Caracas Valley of the Venezuelan coastal mountain range (Cordillera de la Costa). The valley is close to the Caribbean Sea, separated from the coast by a steep 2,200-metre-high (7,200 ft) mountain range, Cerro El Ávila; to the south there are more hills and mountains. The Metropolitan Region of Caracas has an estimated population of almost 5 million inhabitants.

Venue

The Poliedro de Caracas (Caracas Polyhedron Arena) is an indoor sports arena, located on the grounds adjacent to Hipodromo La Rinconada, in

Caracas, Venezuela. It was designed by architect Thomas C. Howard of Synergetics, Inc., in Raleigh,

North Carolina, in 1971. However, the geodesic dome was not concluded, until 1974, when US firm Charter Industries, along with Synergetics, Inc. designed and manufactured the geodesic dome in Raleigh.
It is housed beneath a geodesic dome, with a capacity of 20,000 people for concerts and 13,500 people for sporting events. The arena is used for concerts, sporting events such as basketball, volleyball, boxing, ice skating shows, and for circuses, and trade expositions, like auto shows, and expomuebles (furniture). Lately, it has also been used for government-sponsored political events.

Concept

Located in the equatorial zone, there is no such a surprise why the country of Venezuela happens to have a hot climate all year around.

Venezuela was once one of the most wealthiest countries in the world thanks to their invaluable natural resources. Moreover, this kind of climate and geographic position gifts the country such magical enchantments such as breathtaking beach views like Archipelago Los Roques or Margarita Island, the desert scene like the sand dune of Medanos de Coro National Park and of course, the worldwide famous Angel Fall which could truly express the extraordinary magical spell of this South American nation.
The Sun logo, inspired from the international music festival

Feria del Sol (Fair of the Sun) which is taken place every year, could represent well the eternal power and the ability of lightening up the darkness, giving a symbolic meaning of hope and believe for the massive crisis within

Venezuela. So the council and Venezuelan delegation are more than welcome to invite every delegation to experience the true Magic in the Sunshine with us in

Caracas.
