The Fantasia Contest 7 was the seventh edition of the Fantasia Contest. It took place in Densent, Sirenforest, following Nikki Yanofsky's victory in the sixth edition with "Necessary Evil". The contest consisted of three semi-finals and the grand final. The shows were hosted by Rebecca Mader and Blaire White.
Fifty-two countries sent their entrants to Densent, one more than the previous edition. Florea, Lidonia, Marsia and Pecunia debuted; meanwhile Demonica, Kerwan and Simjangdae announced their withdrawal from the contest.
After the results were revealed, it became apparent that Beklium had won the contest, with their entrant AJR and their song "Weak". AJR is the first all-male winner of the Fantasia Contest. Beklium scored 365 points, just one more point than the runner-up, the US Eldance. 3rd and 4th place were scored by automatic qualifiers Trivania and Alkyria, and rounding up the top 5 was Fordia.
Of the automatic qualifiers, Trivania and Alkyria reached the top 5, placing 3rd and 4th respectively. Frootania placed 13th, host country Sirenforest placed 17th, and the Ermy placed 22nd. Just like the previous edition, an automatic qualifier didn't take the last place.
Format
The competition consisted of three semi-finals and a final. The countries with the highest score in each semi-final qualified to participate in the final, alongside the big five, the countries that were in the top 5 in the previous edition.
