Turkvision Song Contest
◄2015 • 2016

Turkvision Song Contest 2016 (Turkish: Türkvizyon Şarkı Yarışması 2016) will be the fourth edition of Turkvision Song Contest, which will take place at the Yahya Kemal Beyatli Cultural Centre, in Istanbul, Turkey; and organised by TMB TV and Azad Azerbaijan TV. So far, twenty-six Turkic regions, which have either a large Turkic population or a widely spoken Turkic language, have confirmed their participation in the contest. Dagestan, Kumyk, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Stavropol Krai and Sweden will be making their debut, whilst Altai Republic, Bashkortostan, Crimea, Kabardino-Balkaria, Moscow, Tatarstan, Tuva, and Yakutia are all returning after a one-year absence. Karachay-Cherkessia has chosen not to return to the contest and will no longer be in joint-participation with Kabardino-Balkaria, meaning the latter will be participating as a single region. Khakassia also initially planned to return to the contest and had selected their participant, but later withdrew from competing.

Yahya Kemal Beyatli Cultural Centre, venue for the 2016 edition.

In May 2016 it was announced by Subhane Isgenderova the Azerbaijan Head of Delegation that Antalya was going to be the host city for the fourth edition of the contest.[1] However, on 11 July 2016, it was later confirmed that the announcement made Isgenderova was in fact incorrect, and the official host city would be Istanbul.[2]

For the second consecutive year, the venue will be the Yahya Kemal Beyatli Cultural Centre, which has 10,000 covered seats of 30,000 seats at total in Küçükçekmece district of Istanbul.[3]

Format

Unlike the 2015 edition which had no semi-final stage,[4] because of the withdrawals from several Russian states from the contest due to the international relations between the Russian Federation and Turkey in 2015.[5]

National host broadcaster

On 15 July 2016 it was confirmed that the host broadcaster which will be responsible for the organisation of the contest will be Turkish Music Box Television (TMB TV), for the second consecutive year.[6]
