Information
MSC Reimagined marks the refreshed and modernized evolution of the Melodia Song Contest now referred to as Legacy Melodia. This edition is the very first to take place under the new branding.
Season 1 of Melodia Song Contest Reimagined officially kicked off on December 3, 2023, with the opening of claims for the inaugural edition. The following day, December 4, it was announced that the host city would no longer be determined by the winning country, as had been tradition. Instead, a public poll would decide who would host the first season of MSC Reimagined. Five cities entered the running: Buenos Aires, Beijing, Hamburg, Pretoria, and Los Angeles. In the end, Buenos Aires won overwhelmingly with 80% of the vote. The result was shared with the public on December 5, 2023, through an announcement video on the contest’s official YouTube channel.
Claiming closed on December 9, 2023, with 19 users expressing interest in participating (see additional details below). Participants submitted their entries gradually, some selected internally while others chosen through national finals. The submission deadline was December 15, 2023, and voting began the same day, continuing until December 29. Once all votes were collected, they were counted and organized in preparation for the live show on December 31, 2023. Finally, on New Year’s Eve, the results of the first MSC Reimagined edition were revealed.
