Each participating country submits an original song to be performed on live television and radio and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The country's head of delegation gets to select whether the entry will be selected 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.

== History ==
On 3rd August 2015, the [[Fantasia Broadcasting Association]] was formed between the countries of [[Fantasia]], by
The first ever Fantasia Contest kicked off on 14th September 2015, held in [[Crystalfall]], [[Evergreen]]. Evergreen was thus the first country to obtain the rights to host the contest and was also the first country to automatically qualify to the final. A total of 46 nations participated in the first edition, the lowest amount in the contest's history until the [[Fantasia Contest 12|twelfth edition]]. Each country would award 12, 10 and then 8-1 points, with 12 going to their favourite, 10 to the 2nd favourite and so on. Every country was free to pick whether to select results through a televoting, jury or 50/50 split process, though most countries opted for televoting or 50/50.

Any full member of the FBA is able to participate in the contest, countries not full members can apply to become one. Though, all independent states of Fantasia have an active broadcaster in the FBA at the moment, several unrecognised nations have been declined by the FBA.
Each member is responsible for the selection of artists and songs sent by the country that edition. A total of sixty countries have participated in the contest at least once, though fifty-five countries is the maximum count of participants allowed in an edition, but later maximum count of participants reduced to fifty-three.
Before new rules, being revealed on 31st of March, the countries debuted or returned, if the available spots are free. Had rule remained for [[Fantasia Contest 28|twenty-eighth edition]], Sovarasma would debut after Khamatin, and if the next three available spots will be free, Vikyirie would return, Yeukiwan and Dorma would debuted.
However, on 31st of March, it was revealed, that everyone else can participate. On Day 1, the countries, who participated in previous edition, can confirm. Next day, any country on the map can confirm until the limit of 54 countries.

Line 226 ⟶ 317:
Since the first edition, the winning country is automatically awarded the rights to host the next edition. The host broadcaster of the country will then need to decide any format changes, the theme, slogan amongst other jobs, with additional input from the FBA. If a host broadcaster is not able to host, the runner-up or FBA can come in to help. However, the contest would still be hosted in the winning country.
=== New format ===
On July 3rd, a new format is introduced: a limit of spots will be increased from 53 to 54; in each semifinal 8 countries will qualify for he grand final instead of 7, meaning that starting with the [[Fantasia Contest 29|twenty-ninth edition]] there will be 30 finalists.
=== The "Big 5" ===
Line 231 ⟶ 326:
In the first edition, only the host country made it to the final, but in the following editions the top 5 of each edition would automatically have the right to participate in the final of the next edition, without having to go through the semi-finals once again. Two exceptions to this rule have been made: in the [[Fantasia Contest 11|eleventh edition]] only four countries were automatically qualified after [[Te Ao in the Fantasia Contest|Te Ao]] withdrew; in the [[Fantasia Contest 13|thirteenth]] and [[Fantasia Contest 16|sixteenth]] editions six countries were automatically qualified due to a mishap in the voting process of the previous edition.
However, the [[Fantasia Contest 29|twenty-ninth edition]] will be the first edition since the [[Fantasia Contest 16|sixteenth]] edition, where six countries will qualify for the grand final.
Several countries have been automatic qualifiers over the editions, including [[Flírskmasto in the Fantasia Contest|Flírskmasto]], who has done so ten times (including five automatic qualifications in a row); [[Fordia in the Fantasia Contest|Fordia]] who have done so eight times; [[Demacia in the Fantasia Contest|Demacia]] who have done so seven times; [[Alkyria in the Fantasia Contest|Alkyria]], [[Dýria in the Fantasia Contest|Dýria]] and [[Evergreen in the Fantasia Contest|Evergreen]], who has done so six times; [[Aquia in the Fantasia Contest|Aquia]], [[Danskanksova in the Fantasia Contest|Danskanksova]], [[Lanovina in the Fantasia Contest|Lanovina]], and [[Torlova in the Fantasia Contest|Torlova]], who have done so five times; [[Frootania in the Fantasia Contest|Frootania]] [[Lakadamia in the Fantasia Contest|Lakadamia]], [[Namimori in the Fantasia Contest|Namimori]] and [[Niolskiaj in the Fantasia Contest|Niolskiaj]], who have done so four times; [[Hwaesonna in the Fantasia Contest|Hwaesonna]], [[Jarea in the Fantasia Contest|Jarea]], [[Trivania in the Fantasia Contest|Trivania]] and [[United States of Eldance in the Fantasia Contest|United States of Eldance]], who have all done so thrice.

== Voting ==
The Fantasia Contest has had two relatively similar voting systems. The first voting system was used between the [[Fantasia Contest 1|first]] and [[Fantasia Contest 4|fourth]] editions, and the newer voting system has been in place since the [[Fantasia Contest 5|fifth]] edition and is currently in use. The earlier voting system entailed each country finding out their top 10 songs, either through a televoting or jury voting process, or a combination of the two. The current system requires each country to go through both a televoting and jury voting process, and submit the top 10 of both votes. In all rankings, the first place gets 12 points, the second place 10 points and the remaining places receive points from 8 down to 1, but with the current voting system, the amount of points given out by each country is doubled.
However, on March 31st 2022, it was revealed that Fantasia Contest will return to the simple one set voting system (aka Old Eurovision System). That means, the [[Fantasia Contest 28|twenty-eighth]] edition will be the first edition since [[Fantasia Contest 4|fourth]], that only one set voting system will be used. However, the council wants to give the participants the chance to vote for their preferred way to distribute the points.
The options are:
A) 12, 10, 8-1 points are given to the top 10.
B) 24, 21, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8-1 points are given to the top 15.
This would be introduced in the Grand Final only. The normal top 10 voting would remain for the semi-finals.
