Equatoria made their debut in the 19th Edition of the Outernatia Song Contest held in Fettevika, Kimmystan. Their debut was marked by Canadian band Hedley and their single "Hello". Following a successful 8th place debut, Equatoria returned to the 20th Edition of the contest. Sadly Equatoria failed to continue their success in Alteus. Failing to qualify, EQTV will take this as a lesson and carefully consider songs before submitting. Equatoria remains upbeat and has no plans of withdrawing from the contest.

Stance on National Finals

According to EQTV producer Anita Notpayingwater, the station is looking at ways to bring an innovative National Final for Equatoria to select its entrant on. However, more time is needed in order to be fully satisfied with the submission, presentation and voting methods before being implemented. Until the broadcaster is satisfied with the national final format, Equatoria will continue to choose internally. It also may hold song selection contests whilst waiting in which a singer is predetermined, but the representing song is selected by vote.
