Griffiniskaja Laul 6

Griffiniskaja Laul 06 was the sixth edition of the Griffiniskaja Laul musical event and Waiting List Song Contest national final which took place in the principality of Eestimadnait (today known as Westersund) following their victory at the previous edition. The festival determined Griffin representative at the 215th Waiting List Song Contest.

Host principality, Eestimadnait (Westersund) won for the 4th time with the record breaking number of points. Foreõsvdetrre finished second, while Meremaa finished third.

Format
Seven principalities of Griffin Empire submitted their entry of choice to compete in a one night final. Each principality gave 1,5,8 10 and 12 points to their favourite songs via televoting. It was forbidden to vote for ones own principality. Seventeen Natian countries were part of the international juries with three more nations broadcasting the show live. The jury nations gave points in the same way as Griffin televoting.

International juries' votes determined Griffin representative at the Waiting List Song Contest. Both juries and televoting combined determined the overall winner of the festival.

Unlike the previous edition, there was no official theme, although the unofficial theme shared on the social media was "back to basics". It was revealed on social media that the host for the 6th edition would be Griffin actress Ester Expósito. Later the official photoshoot was revealed on the cover of Griffin edition of Vogue.

The show was opened with the 2nd Griffiniskaja Laul winner singing the winner MIKA performing his new song "Tomorrow" which was during the host's monologue revealed as the new Griffinskaja Laul anthem. Postcards featured the singers themselves doing their everyday tasks and were called "a day in a life of" followed by the representative's name.

After Westersund's, then Eestimadnait's victory, chef of the GTVEEM stated that the 6th contest would be held in Pyetsit, but this was yet to be confirmed by the GTV. Later, GTVEEM and GTV formally opened the bidding process for cities interested in hosting the contest. A handful of GTV delegates were looking at potential venues in Pyetsit and Filipolis and to hear the bid from Sania. In a press conference it was reported that Sania was no longer in the running to host, leaving it between Pyetsit and Filipolis. Filipolis was announced as the host city, with Bözjoaarr Stadijümi as the chosen venue for the contest. This was the second time that Griffiniskaja Laul would be held at a stadium, third time in Eestimadnait (Westersund) and the first time in Filipolis.

Songs selection
The sixth edition saw the biggest change in the terms of songs selection procedure as the GTV decided to concentrate more on the organisation than choosing the songs, so regional broadcasters got to choose their representatives completely on their own. Regional branches of GTV had sole discretion on the process they employed to select their entry for the contest, although the GTV strongly encouraged that broadcasters engage the public with the selection of their act. Three principalities - Sletterimaa, Eestimadnait (todays Westersund) and Färzas - Lætingmaa held a televised national selection process using a public vote. Others have chosen their acts internally.

Total number of songs submitted was 3450 - the most in Foreõsvdetrre and the least in Pzyerüyölkeä.
