The Internatia Song Contest 42 will be the 42nd annual edition of Internatia Song Contest. The contest will take place in Nicolas' Neighbour and will be hosted by the national broadcaster BNN after their victory in 40th edition of Internatia Song Contest with the song "Chasing Twisters", performed by Delta Rae. It is the first time BNN hosts any ISC related contest. The Glass Dome in Baus-Ia, NN's capital, has been chosen as venue by broadcaster BNN. The semi's will be held from the 1st of December till the 14th of December, while the final will run from the 15th till the 27th of December.
17 Countries have announced their participation in ISC 42 so far.
Location
BNN announced directly after their win that their first choice as host city would be Baus-Ia. However, other cities were still able to apply. After NN's win in Capucarnaisa, bids had to be sent in quickly, with cities only having two days to decide to apply or not. BNN had discussed hosting options with cities and towns at an earlier date though, informing them of the requirements in case of an unexpected NN win.
4 cities submitted a bid. On the 4th December, BNN announced that the contest would be held in the Glass Dome, in Baus-ia. Baus-ia, as capital of NN, is the country's biggest transport HUB, and has access to a broad bus and train network as well as the country's biggest International Airport. The Glass Dome, finished only in 2012, has a capacity of 12,000. Many national and international Internation stars have performed in the hall, and it also serves for other cultural events, such as expositions, festivals and lectures.
| City | Venue | Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Baus-Ia | Neighbouria Royal Theatre | 3.000 |
| Glass Dome | 12,000 | |
| Funsan | Funsan Football Stadium | 23,500 |
| Xi | Nightingale Theathre | 8,000 |
