Unity Music Festival

The Unity Music Festival, often shortened UMF, is a song contest on Youtube since August 2015 and is inspired by the Eurovision Song Contest.

Each country's head of delegation gets to select an entry for each edition either by internal or national selection. Then the countries get to vote for each show (semi-final or final) to determine the qualifiers and the winner of the edition.

On 12th August 2015, ESCAlexSP,decided to open an international music contest, in that every single country of the world can take part by sending artists representing their countries with songs. It was called Unity Music Festival. The name was inspired by the power of the contest to unite countries with music.

The first ever Unity Music Festival is expected to start on September 2015. It will be held in the most populated city of Australia which also was the first ever country to host the Unity Music Festival.
