'''Open Nippon''' (or '''Open Nippon Song Competition''') is a song competition organised by [[:en:NHK|NHK]] (Japanese public broadcasters) every six months. It determines the country's representative for the [[WorldVision Song Contest]], and has been running since summer 2022.
== <strong>Origins</strong> ==
The first "Open Nippon" was held on 10 June 2022 at [[:en:Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium|Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium]] in [[:en:Tokyo|Tokyo]]. Six songs participated. Six "expert" juries from ather countries and the puplic (in the proportion of 75% to 25%) decided the winner. The competition was won by Nao Aihara performing "Lighthouse".
== <strong>Participation</strong> ==
To be eligible, performers must be at least sixteen years of age on the day of the first Worldvision semi-final. 6 entries are invited to the competition, of which at least four must be submitted by performers from Japan. Both solo performers and duets, musical groups are allowed to participate. At least half of the entries must be in Japanese.
== <strong>Hosting</strong> ==
As planned by the organizers, the song contest should be held in different cities of the country from season to season. So the first season was decided to be held in [[:en:Tokyo|Tokyo]], which will not be able to host the selection of the next season.
== <strong>Format</strong> ==
It is planned that the competition will be held in one round (final) when only six songs will take part.
===Voting===
The six members of the jury (75% of all votes) and the puplic (25% of all votes) will take part in the voting. Each of the six members of the jury will have a set of points: 10, 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1 point. The results of the public vote were translated into a system of points: 20, 14, 10, 3, 2 and 1 point.
