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 following their victory at the previous edition.

Bidding phase
After Eestimadnait's victory in Foreõsvdetrre, in the 5th contest, chef of the GTVEEM stated that the 6th contest would be held in Pyetsit, but this was yet to be confirmed by the Griffiniskaja Televisioon. Eestimadnaitish finance minister Niuoo Gojrim also said in an interview the event would be held solely in Pyetsit and estimated its cost at 25 million Kralaurums (approximately €30 million). The mayor of Pyetsit, Krýstýn Pelgedt, mentioned Noueveliska Stadijümi Pyetsitiskaja and Arkea-arrenaa as possible venues to host the event. Both the municipality of Düüntüün and the City Centre District had confirmed that because it lacked the seating capacity, the contest would not be held at the Shaitö ot sparrtotre.

On 6th January 211, GTVEEM and GTV formally opened the bidding process for cities interested in hosting the contest.

Later, 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. On 17th January 211, GTV announced Filipolis 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 and the first time in Filipolis.

Songs selection
Seventh 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 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 3 450 - the most in Foreõsvdetrre and the least in Pzyerüyölkeä.

Eestimadnait shjuuziræ
Host principality - Eestimadnait held a regional final named „Eestimadnait shjuuziræ“ (Grif. Eestimadnait chooses) where 6 songs competed. It was held at the Shaitö ot sparrtotre in the capital of the principality – Pyetsit. The show was broadcast on both GTV and GTVEEM. The winner and later their representative was Liis Lemsalu.

Kwo goee för Sletterimaasam
Second principality to choose their entry was Sletterimaa, and they did as well held a regional final named „Kwo goee för Sletterimaasam“ (Grif. Who is going for Sletterimaa?) where 4 songs competed. It was held at the Læronef, a music venue in the capital of the principality – Nýtdainsk. The show was broadcast on both GTV and GTVSLE.
