On Sunday, the weekly Song Contest "Song Contest Sunday" will begin and you will have the chance to participate in it! Simply leave a song you like, it doesn't have to be from Eurovision, in the comments and we will add it to the lineup of Song Contest Sunday! You will be mentioned in said post so you can vote in it. This is a great opportunity to discover new songs, share songs you like, or see how much your music taste is liked!

If you can, you can also provide the following things alongside your song:

• Link to the song
• Share the best part of the song as a recap (ideally with timestamps, 30 seconds long)

This is a special edition, so the winner of SCS 50 u/Potential_Crazy_2314 will have their Automatic Qualifier moved to SCS 51.

Have fun sharing songs! :D

Special rules: SCS Second Chance

This week we have a special edition with some extra rules!

• Any submitted artist must meet at least one of the following requirements:
  • Has participated in an SCS user final before and failed to progress
  • Has participated in SCS before and failed to qualify for the final
  • Has participated in SCS before and finished in the bottom third of the grand final

If either of these apply to your artist, they are not valid to be sent:

• Has participated in SCS before and finished in the top two-thirds of the final
• Has not participated in SCS or an SCS user final before

For example, I could not send The Last Dinner Party -- despite the fact that they did not qualify for the final in SCS 21, they finished in the top two-thirds of the final in SCS 33.

New to the contest, but still want to participate? Check out the wiki!

Rules

Rule 1: No ESC Winners
Songs that won Eurovision since 1956 cannot be submitted.

Rule 2: No past SCS-entries

Songs that have already participated in SCS in the past are not allowed in the contest. Check out the SCS Wiki Page and a YouTube Playlist, which includes all the songs that have participated in SCS. *The playlist is slightly outdated and may not contain all songs.

Rule 3: English Songs (Non-Bubble Artists Only)

For English songs by artists outside the Eurovision Bubble (See FAQ):

• Over 10M YouTube subscribers? Song must have <10M views (top version).
• Over 7M subscribers? Song must have <50M views.
• Over 5M subscribers? Song must have <100M views.

Rule 4: Recent ESC and National Final songs

Songs that

• Participated in the Eurovision Song Contest from 2021 onwards
• Participated in a National Final for the Eurovision Song Contest in 2025 and 2026

are not allowed on the contest, as the majority of present users might know them already, defeating the contest's purpose of sending and discovering new music

FAQ

Can I submit songs by Eurovision artists?

Yes! We love new releases and hidden gems from Bubble artists. We discourage submitting their Eurovision song, but if the song didn’t win Eurovision then technically it’s allowed.

What is a ‘Bubble artist’?

Any Artist/Band who has competed in Eurovision or any National Selection. Aside from Rule 1, no other restrictions apply to their songs, even if the song is in English.

Why do the restrictions only apply to songs in English?

English hits are well-known in the countries most Eurovision Fans come from. Non-English songs rarely go global, so no limits.

What if the song I want to submit is only partly in English, do the restrictions still apply?

Bi-lingual/Multi-Lingual songs with English parts are not restricted as long as most of the song is not in English.

Some additional important information:

If you share multiple songs, please select only one of them to compete in Song Contest Sunday.

Covers of previously sent songs are allowed, if they are able to be looked up separately on YouTube/Spotify etc., alongside the original song. If this is the case, the cover is allowed. Covers of Eurovision winners are forbidden.

If you share an alternative version (such as an English or live version) alongside your song, said performance will also be linked in the Song Contest Sunday post tomorrow.

Songs that are shared after the 26th of July 00:00 CET will not be considered for SCS! Please share your songs before that point!

If you decide to participate, please note the following schedule if you'd like to follow the contest! You will also be mentioned in the post if you submit an entry, but we are not quite sure how mentioning works yet, so don't rely on it!

• On Sunday, approx. 10:00 - 14:00 CET: Semifinals open for voting.
• On late Monday (time specified in Semifinal-Post): Semifinal voting closure and qualifier announcement shortly after.
• On late Tuesday (about 24h after qualifier announcement): Grand Final opens for voting
• On late Wednesday (at about the same time on Monday and Tuesday): Voting reminder launches on r/eurovisionfancontests, noting the current amount of votes and other information.
• On late Thursday (about 24h after voting reminder): Voting closure and results reveal.

You may host a preselection to decide your entry for SCS! But please consider the following things when doing so:

• User preselections will not be added to community highlights.
• User preselections for the next SCS may only be created after the result from the previous SCS have been released. If that isn't the case, your post will be removed.
• Please comment the winner of your preselection under the SCS-Submissions post before Submission closure, or else we will not consider your entry as a part of that SCS edition!
• It is not allowed to make a separate post for simply just advice on your entry and then select it yourself! You must declare the result of the preselection with the points you've gathered.
• Don't know how to set voting up for your preselection? Check the second step of our guide Fancontest 101!

Hello all! Earlier today in the r/FantasyVisionContests Discord server, one user had mentioned that they wanted a place to discuss r/Eurovisionfancontests related material.

Anyways, a few of us in that server had the idea of making a Discord server for this sub, and after discussing it with a few people, I created it! It will not replace anything on here, but will hopefully serve as a more efficient way of sharing information and having a general forum to chat. Of course, if you don't have Discord, the subreddit will still remain the same :)

Features at the moment

• Roles for being a participant in major fancontests so you can ping participants for voting reminders/results
• A dedicated results channel if you want to reveal results in a more suspenseful fashion
• Several fun bots, including a last.fm bot that tracks your stats on the site
• Channels for each major fancontest, as well as a fun "r/Eurovisionfancontests in the wild" channel :)
• and more yet to come!

Join here!

... seems to have been sent by 2-3 people but has actually been sent by no one? This time, artists that have been sent to other fancontests (Retrofest, Odds and Ends, ABCVision, etc) or to none at all are eligible! Most upvoted comment by 06/29, 17:30EST replaces the sticker. Happy commenting!

As for the artist that seems to have been sent by 4+ people but was sent by none, that honor goes to **Loreen**, as commented by u/Doggo_of_dogs! Here are the artist's most popular (eligible) songs, per her YouTube channel!

* My Heart Is Refusing Me (23M views)
* Is It Love (19M views)
* We Got The Power (8M views)
* Sober (6M views)
* Neon Lights (3M views)

NAPA has won SCS 46, which was hosted in Buzău, Romania. Because of this, we'll be going to Madeira, Portugal for SCS 47. The contest will be hosted at Teatro Municipal Baltazar Dias.

In any case, we've received 36 submissions for SCS 47. We will now decide which acts will qualify for the final via three semifinals! You can drag your 6 qualifiers from each semi into order and give them points this way and the 6 songs with the most points will qualify. We will vote with StrawPoll in the Semifinals and with ScoreWiz in the Grand Final. There will be 20 participants in the Grand Final consisting of 6 qualifiers from each Semifinal, 1 additional non-qualifying wildcard from the semifinals, and 1 automatic qualifier!

You have time until Monday 29 June 2026 20:00 CEST to vote in both Semifinals and the qualifiers will be revealed on r/Eurovisionfancontests soon after.
