Host broadcaster Royal Tikatan Radio Television (RTRT) announced on 25 January 2016, the day after winning the 25th Contest, that they are planning to host contest either in Surme, or in Cundere Sur. Later that day RTRT announced that contest will take place in Exhibition Centre in Cundere Sul, largest city in Hulara and 13th largest in Tikata.[3]

Cundere Sul is a vigorous service city that is experiencing an ongoing social, economic, and aesthetic revitalisation process The city is famous for its folklore, local gastronomy, and landmarks. According to a 2013 research, Cundere Sul ranks as the most popular Tikatan city, based on where people want to live.

Format

Each participating country has their own national jury, who will give 12 points to their favorite song, 10 to the second best, then 8 to the third, and so forth until the tenth-best ranked song receives a single point. The draw for running order is set to be held on 13 February 2016 in Cundere Sul.

The contest is open to non-winning songs that participated in a national final. Even if a national final was cancelled, songs from that national final are eligible to enter. Also when a song won a national final, but wasn't sent to a contest, the song can still participate.

Tie-break rules

The official rules of the Internatia Song Contest are followed. During the Internatia Song Contest, in the event of more than one country scoring the same total number of points, a count is made of the numbers of countries who awarded points to each of the tied countries, and the one who received points from the most countries is placed above the other tied countries. If two or more countries are still tied, the sets of maximum points (12 points) each country received is 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.

Presenters

RTRT confirmed that Margo Devi, presenter of two previous contests in Tikata, is broadcaster first choice to host the contest.
