Controversy
This edition became known for the sudden disappearance of the original semi-finals host, Lyapunovia, shortly after they confirmed their entry. This led to speculation as to how the show would begin. Eventually, it led to the winner of the previous edition, Canedonia, hosting the semi-finals too. Lyapunovia is also at risk of losing their final place due to not voting in the semi-finals. In this case, the best average score of the 11th places countries will qualify.
