Turkvision Song Contest (TSC, Turkish: Türkvizyon Şarkı Yarışması), also known as Türkvizyon Song Contest, was an annual song contest created by Turkish music channel TMB TV, inspired by the format of the Eurovision Song Contest. The first edition took place in Eskişehir, Turkey. The semi-final was held on 19 December 2013, with the grand final taking place on 21 December 2013.[1] Countries and regions which were Turkic-speaking and of Turkic ethnicity were eligible to participate in the song contest. The contest was last held on 19 December 2015, and has not been held since.[2]
Format
Turkvision was an annual song contest which was created by TÜRKSOY in cooperation with the Turkish music channel TMB TV. Based on the similar format of the Eurovision Song Contest, Turkvision focused primarily on participating Turkic countries and regions. The participating countries and regions had to take part in the Semi Final. A juror from each nation awarded between 1 and 10 points for every entry, except their own. An amount of 12 to 15 nations qualified for the Grand Final where the jury determined the winner. TÜRKSOY stated that televoting would be introduced in the future, but it never eventuated.[2] Unlike the Eurovision Song Contest in which the winning country proceeded to host the following year's event, hosting of the Turkvision Song Contest took place in the country or region that also hosted the Turkish Capital of Culture.[3]
Participation
Participants from Turkic-speaking and Turkic countries or regions were eligible to compete in the annual Turkvision Song Contests, such as Crimea, Karachay-Cherkessia, and Turkey.[2] Twenty-four countries and regions took part in the Template:Tscyr of Turkvision. There were several unsuccessful attempts to participate in the Turkvision Song Contest. Template:Tsccnty, Template:Tsccnty, Template:Tsccnty, and Template:Tsccnty were one of the original twenty-four participating areas with initial intentions to competing at the 2013 Contest, but later withdrew for undisclosed reasons.[4]
