Themedari Song Contest 4 will be the fourth edition of Themedari Song Contest. The fourth edition will be hosted in Marnos, the winning country of the previous edition.
The theme for the fourth edition of the contest is second chances.
Theme Rules
The theme for the fourth edition of the Themedari Song Contest is that all countries must send an artist in which they placed worst with, in either Zendari Song Contest, Zendarifestivalen or Themedari Song Contest. The submitted entries must comply with these rules;
- Competing countries must submit songs from their worst placing artists in any previous ZBA events (Zendari Song Contest, Zendarifestivalen, Themedari Song Contest etc.)
- Any country that has competed less than five times can submit any previous competing artist of their choice.
- Any song by the artist can be submitted, apart from any entries previously sent by said artist.
- In the event that a country has yet to debut in any Zendari-related event, the user can submit their worst performing artist from another contest. It will be decided on a case-by-base basis.
Grand Final
Other countries
Eligibility for potential participation in Themedari Song Contest requires a national broadcaster with either a active ZBA membership or inactive ZBA membership that is be able to broadcast the contest. All countries with an active ZBA membership have been given an invitation to join this edition.
Active ZBA countries
- Alirie - Withdrew on the 18th April 2019, due to a lack of interest in the theme.
- Neolinn - On 19 April 2019, NeoTV confirmed that they would not be competing in the contest due to the "unsuitable theme" of the edition. They elaborated that since the country has only participated once in the Themedari Song Contest, and twice in Zendarifestivalen, they are at a disadvantage in terms of competition, and do not feel that they are able to provide a high-quality entry to the contest. They did, however, wish the best of luck to the host nation, and haven't ruled out a return to a potential fifth edition.
- Sosij - Withdrew due to the singer, FAKA had no interest in competing.
- Shairia, Xaliqtyva, Zamolodchikova - On the 10 April 2019, it was confirmed that these countries would be barred from competing in the fourth edition, having failed to vote in the previous edition. Their ban will remain in place until the following edition.
