The Festival Internacional da Canção (FIC) was an annual televised music competition held at the Ginásio do Maracanãzinho in Rio de Janeiro from 1966 to 1972. The festival was created by journalist Augusto Marzagão and was designed with the goal of rivaling the Festival de Música Popular Brasileira hosted by TV Record.[1] Over its seven year run, it featured several of the most influential musicians in Brazilian music including Raul Seixas, Os Mutantes, Antônio Carlos Jobim, and Gilberto Gil.[2][3]
The competition consisted of two divisions: a national section (consisting of only Brazilian songwriters) and an international section (consisting of all attending countries including the winners of the national section). Winners of the international section were given the Golden Rooster Award designed by Ziraldo and produced by jewelry firm H. Stern.
