2025

The World Song Contest 2025, otherwise known as WSC 2025 was the first, technically 5th, edition of the World Song Contest. The contest took place in London, following Halsey's 3rd win in a row for the United Kingdom, in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024. The show consisted of ONE grand final. There were 9 participating countries.

Halsey was scheduled to perform in the final as a participant. Due to inability to submit a song, Halsey was disqualified from the contest. Halsey still attended the show and performed her winning song from last year, "Sorry", as the opening act.

Visual Design
The official logo and slogan were revealed on 29th Of April, 2025. The logo consists of a pastel brown background created by the light, with rainbow reflections of the centerpiece, which is a white circular light, illuminating a flourishing kaleidoscope to fit in with the slogan.



Point Format
As usual, the format is extremely unstable due to the amount of countries considerably changing from year to year. This year, each participating country's juries had to give out 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2 and 1 set of points, determining half of the results. The televote was also changed, from not changing the results almost at all to being the other half of them. Everyone, both from the participating countries and other countries, was allowed to vote through the World Song Contest website. The points of the televote were later changed in order to be equal to the juries.

Scoreboard
There were originally 10 countries participating, but due to the United Kingdom's disqualification, the show only consisted of 9 participating acts. {| class="sortable wikitable" id="gf-results-table" !Draw !Country !Artist !Song !Place !Points
