'''Nights of Gandhara''' ([[Wikipedia:Arabic|Arabic]]: لَيَالِي من غانذارا, ''Layālī min Gāndhāra'') is a [[Wikipedia:Music_competition|music competition]] organised by the Gandhari public broadcaster [[Radio and Television of Gandhara]] (RTG). It determines the country's representatives for the [[Outernatia Song Contest]] and the [[Internatia Song Contest]], and has been staged almost every edition since the [[Outernatia Song Contest 3]]. The competition is among the most popular television programmes in Gandhara, and it is also broadcast on radio and the Internet. Nights of Gandhara has been used to select entries for the [[Internatia Second Chance Contest]] as well.


'''Nights of Gandhara''' ([[Wikipedia:Arabic_language|Arabic]]: لَيَالِي من غانذارا, ''Layālī min Gāndhāra'') is the [[Gandhara|Gandhari]] national preselection of the [[Outernatia Song Contest]]. The competition, organised by [[Radio and Television of Gandhara]] (RTG), was first introduced to select the entry for the [[Outernatia Song Contest 3|third edition]] of the contest.
The festival has produced a [[Outernatia Song Contest#Winners|winner]] and three top-five placings for [[Gandhara in the Outernatia Song Contest|Gandhara at the Outernatia Song Contest]], as well as two winners for [[Gandhara in the Internatia Second Chance Contest|Gandhara at the Internatia Second Chance Contest]].

==Hosting==
[[File:Minna Theater.png|thumb|250px|The [[Minna Theater]] hosted several editions of Nights of Gandhara.]]
Almost all editions of Nights of Gandhara were held at the [[Minna Theater]] in [[Rhea]]. Only the [[Gandhara in the Outernatia Song Contest 9#Nights of Gandhara|seventh]] and [[Gandhara in the Outernatia Song Contest 10#Nights of Gandhara|eighth edition]] were held at the International Convention Center in [[Manas]].


==Contestants==
The plan is to rotate the hosting of the competition between cities throughout Gandhara in the future. It might even be possible to host an edition in a different country. The idea behind it is to draw more attention for the contest nationwide and on an international level.

==Voting==
Points are given by juries from different countries. Since the start of the contest, one voting system has been used. Each jury awards 12, 10, and 8 points to their top three songs. The jury from Gandhara only votes when less than six international juries are present to give their votes.
 
Since the [[Gandhara in the Outernatia Song Contest 11#Nights of Gandhara|ninth edition]], the tie-break rules of the Internatia Song Contest are followed.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.escforum.net/forum/showthread.php?27705-Arab-Republic-of-Gandhara-(%D8%AC%D9%85%D9%87%D9%88%D8%B1%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%BA%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%B0%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%B1%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A9)&p=4554194&viewfull=1#post4554194|title=New tie-breake rules at Nights of Gandhara|date=7 June 2015}}</ref> This means that in case of a tie a count will be made of the numbers of countries who awarded points to each of the tied songs, and the one who received points from the most countries will be placed above the other song(s). If two or more songs are still tied, the sets of maximum points (12 points) each song received will be counted. If there is still a tie, the numbers of 10-point scores awarded are compared, and then the numbers of 8-point scores, all the way down the list. In the unlikely event that there is still a tie between two or more songs, the song that performed earliest in the running order will be placed above the other tied songs.

The generic logo for Nights of Gandhara.

Nights of Gandhara (Arabic: لَيَالِي من غانذارا, Layālī min Gāndhāra) is a music competition organised by the Gandhari public broadcaster Radio and Television of Gandhara (RTG). It determines the country's representatives for the Outernatia Song Contest and the Internatia Song Contest, and has been staged almost every edition since the Outernatia Song Contest 3. The competition is among the most popular television programmes in Gandhara, and it is also broadcast on radio and the Internet. Nights of Gandhara has been used to select entries for the Internatia Second Chance Contest as well.

The festival has produced a winner and three top-five placings for Gandhara at the Outernatia Song Contest, as well as two winners for Gandhara at the Internatia Second Chance Contest.

Hosting

The Minna Theater hosted several editions of Nights of Gandhara.

Almost all editions of Nights of Gandhara were held at the Minna Theater in Rhea. Only the seventh and eighth edition were held at the International Convention Center in Manas.

The plan is to rotate the hosting of the competition between cities throughout Gandhara in the future. It might even be possible to host an edition in a different country. The idea behind it is to draw more attention for the contest nationwide and on an international level.

Edition Location Venue
1st–6th
9th–15th
Rhea Minna Theater
7th–8th Manas International Convention Center

Voting

Points are given by juries from different countries. Since the start of the contest, one voting system has been used. Each jury awards 12, 10, and 8 points to their top three songs. The jury from Gandhara only votes when less than six international juries are present to give their votes.

Since the ninth edition, the tie-break rules of the Internatia Song Contest are followed.[1] This means that in case of a tie a count will be made of the numbers of countries who awarded points to each of the tied songs, and the one who received points from the most countries will be placed above the other song(s). If two or more songs are still tied, the sets of maximum points (12 points) each song received will be counted. If there is still a tie, the numbers of 10-point scores awarded are compared, and then the numbers of 8-point scores, all the way down the list. In the unlikely event that there is still a tie between two or more songs, the song that performed earliest in the running order will be placed above the other tied songs.
