It was a great year but it's now time to enter a new year which will bring a lot of changes in this contest. 2013 was the year where EM had to deal will many things, some good and some bad but in the end everything got solved with no major issues. 

We want to wish everyone a great new year and all the best. 

The voting for the Grand Final of EM 37 Song Contest will end on January 6th 2014. 

It was a wonderful Christmas with many great songs from different countries and cultures. This year again, the Xmas Edition was hosted for the second time in Arad, Romania after Paula Seling won last year with a great carol. 

This year, we had two semifinals and one grand final. The voting went great and a winner got the chance to host next year's Xmas Edition. And, ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the Xmas Edition 2013 is....ITALY with 110 points!

We wish everyone a great year and we'll celebrate xmas from Italy next year!
