The Internatia Song Contest 41 will be the 41st annual edition of Internatia Song Contest. The contest will take place in Nolvena, Grolskira, and will be hosted by the national broadcaster GLTV with a strong cooperation of GrolSat. The right to host has been granted to Grolskira since they won 39th edition in Ithist, Alteus with Kwabs and his song "Walk".

Participants

54 nations sent in their applications to enter ISC 41. From the roster, Aonach decided to withdraw for another reasons, meanwhile 3 countries were replaced this edition entirely: Dulcet Ebullience, Evergreen Lands and Lettuce were replaced with Bitland, Gandhara and Thorway.

Semi-final allocation draw

The semi-final allocation draw was officially filmed in Cold Morning Building in Nolvena, Grolskira, and several other places at the same time on October 31st, 2015. However, GLTV's footage was completely damaged at the same time, meaning the videos didn't make the cut for being uploaded and shown live.

Host nation Grolskira and the withdrawn nations were exempt from the draw.

The current pots were calculated by the Sunettian broadcaster CSI before the start of ISC 40 and were as followed (minus hosts and withdrawees):
