Nation Song Contest 187

The 187th edition of the Nation Song Contest was held in Luzinia after the winner of the previous edition, Tuzi, declined to do so.

Aclaira, Arva, Begonia, Blackmere, Comino and Il-Bidu all returned, while Godric's Hollow and Uferbruht withdrew. Aimūlli was forced to sit out after failing to vote in the previous edition's final.

As of this edition, over 10,000 entries have been entered throughout the contest's history. The lucky 10,000th entry (going by draw order) was sent by Adamsburg, the oldest active nation at the time, performing in semifinal 1.

Starting in this edition, RD Radio hosted by Rahasia-Diati started airing regular broadcasts of all entries in the semifinals and the 28 finalists in the grand final. Each block aired twice daily at 10:00 and 20:00 CET until their respective voting deadlines.
