Unity Fest

Unity Fest is a song contest that served as a joint national final for Frostfall, Gandhara, Jhe Freeh, Kimmystan, and Raingate to select their entry for the Outernatia Song Contest 20. The competition was held on 1 March 2016 in Huttiheita, Kimmystan.

Competing entries

Ten acts competed in the national final, two from each country. The competing songs and artists were announced on 14 February 2016.[1] The winner was decided by 12 professional juries from different countries, who awarded 12, 10, 8–1 points to their 10 favourite songs, except for the participating countries who awarded 12, 10, 8–3 points to their 8 favourite songs as they were not able to vote for their own two entries. "Punchline" by Josef Salvat won for Kimmystan, having been ranked first by one jury, the jury from Raingate. "Namriin Boroond Bi Gomdson" by Kiwi came 4th and was the highest ranked Gandhari entry. The other Gandhari entry, "Bel3arbia" by Nizar Idil, came last.

At Outernatia

All countries, except the host country, were required to qualify from two semi-finals in order to compete in the final; from each semi-final the top nine countries progressed to the final, and a tenth was determined by the International Jury. On 8 March 2016, an allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals.[2] Gandhara was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 20 March 2016.

In the second semi-final, Kiwi performed 1st in the running order, preceding Lost Islands. At the close of the voting "Namriin Boroond Bi Gomdson" had received 61 points from 12 countries, placing Gandhara 6th of 14 competing countries, and thus the song qualified for the final.

In the final, Kiwi performed 12th in the running order, following Noxus and preceding Ponásikwa. At the close of the voting "Namriin Boroond Bi Gomdson" had received 89 points from 14 countries, placing Gandhara 10th of 21 competing countries.
