The Outernatia Song Contest 12 will be the twelfth edition of the Outernatia Song Contest and will take place in Hugo Chávez City, Lettuce. This will be the first time that the Lettucian national broadcaster, Lettuce Broadcasting Corporation (BNT), are organising an OBU event. So far, twenty-nine countries have confirmed their participation, with four countries making their first appearance, and four countries returning.
This edition will be the last contest to take place on one evening. The Outernatian Broadcasting Union (OBU) revealed that it would be adding a two semi-finals show to the competition in order to accommodate the growing number of interested countries wishing to take part in the contest.[1]

Bidding phase
Following Noxus' win at the Outernatia Song Contest 10, the Outernatian Broadcasting Union had given the broadcaster BKR the first refusal to host the twelfht edition. However, on 28 June 2015, BKR declined the right to host the contest and offered to Lettuce, who finished second, the possibility to hosting.[2]
The Lettuce Broadcasting Corporation announced later that day that they accepted Noxus invitation to host the contest.[3] It will be the first time that the nation will have organised any OBU event.
On 1 July 2015, LBC announced that it had chosen Hugo Chávez City as the host city for the contest.
