EuroMusic Song Celebration 2

The EuroMusic Song Celebration 2 was the second edition of the EuroMusic Song Celebration. This edition took place in ..., the United Kingdom.

15 countries took part in this first edition. There was a limited number of participants. Latvia and Germany had to withdraw because they finished at the lowest two places. Iceland and Israel were the first two countries who confirmed their participation.

Location
Different as in the EuroMusic Song Contest, the previous winners isn't automatically the next hosting country. In this edition the EBU selected one country through a selection. All particpating countries were able to send a bid to host the contest. Only the UK announced to be interested to host. Because of this, the United Kingdom was selected automatically as host nation.

Format
Countries could apply to participate. There is a maximum of 15 countries. Each country sends one song to the contest. Every country have to sing in their own national language. The song can't be longer than five minutes.

After that all the participating countries have sang their song, each single country awards two sets of points. The country who gets the most amount of points wins the contest. If two or more countries receive the same number of points, the country that got the highest rank from the televoting will be ranked higher.

There are specific rules about how a country gets his running order. The first, last place and the spot of the host country are drawn. The rest of the running order will be created by the producers of the show.
