Globalvision Season 19

The 19th season of the Globalvision Song Contest, also known as "The Globalvision Burnbook", expected to begin on the 5th of September 2021 with its final ceremony on the 3rd of October, coinciding with the "Mean Girls Day".

Location
The contest is going to be held in the country that won the previous season, which was the Netherlands. On the 4th of September, a day before the season formally began, it was confirmed by @Dutch, the previous winner, that the contest would be held in Rotterdam, precisely in its iconic venue, Rotterdam Ahoy arena, which already hosted the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest in May.

Participating countries
The draw reveal occurred on the 10th of September, although, in the previous two days, some users got the privilege of choosing their position in the running order as a prize in the GVBB Board Game.

Returning artists
The chinese representant Yuqi appeared already in season 14 representing South Korea as part of the girl group G-(IDLE).

Minelli came back to represent Romania after appearing in season 15.

Both Robin Packalen and Alex Mattson returned to Globalvision to represent Finland after appearing separately in seasons 9 and 11 respectively.

The icelandic group Vök has previously appeared in season 14.

Marco Mengoni returned to represent Italy for a second time after representing this country in season 11 previously.

Final
Initially 39 countries were meant to take part in the final, but Portugal was disqualified before the reveal of the first entries as its representant didn't send his entry on time. It was meant to appear in 10th place in the running order.

Another 3 countries were meant to participate in the competition, but they got replaced before the deadline for submissions ended. That was the case for Latvia, New Zealand and Philippines. .
