It is set to take place in Cologne, Germany, following the country's victory at the WorldVision Song Contest Q2-2023 contest with the song "Still Dancing" by Reve. Organised by the International Eurofan's Countries Organisation (IECO) and host broadcaster NDR.
Albania, Cyprus and France are debut in the competition
New Zealand withdrew from the competition without explanation.
Location
The Q3-2023 contest will be held in one of the cities of Germany, which received the right to host after its victory in the previous competition. It will be the first time that Germany hosts the contest. The selected venue is the 20.000-seat Lanxess Arena.
City bidding process
On July 13, four candidate cities for the competition were announced, they were: Hamburg, Cologne, Dortmund and Frankfurt. In the end, Cologne got the right to host the song contest, and the "arena" was chosen as the venue for the contest.
Format
Entries
For the Q3-2023 season, songs released on the YouTube platform no earlier than 1 January 2021 are eligible. Also, a quota was introduced for compositions from the Billboard Hot-100 up to one per season and with the restriction of use for one curator no more than once in 4 seasons of participation.
Introduction of the semi-final
On August 22, 2023, it was announced that twenty-nine countries will take part in the competition. Due to the fact that the number of participating countries was large for the final and not enough for the semi-final, there were discussions within the reference group. As a result, on August 23, 2023, it was announced that the introduction of the semi-finals would take place. Thus, fourteen countries automatically qualified for the final (the top 10 of last season and an additional four countries according to the overall rating). The remaining fifteen countries were placed in the semi-final, of which only ten will advance to the final.
