Global Music 155
Buenos Aires, Argentina

Welcome to Buenos Aires!

As Axel managed to bring the trophy to Argentina for the very first time, the 155th edition - and the first of 2019 - of Global Music will be coming to you from the country's capital, Buenos Aires. We will be here in this sexy and beautiful city combining European grandeur and Latin passion all of January!

39 countries have signed up to participate, which is the same as last month. 

And what a line up we have! 8 Global Music Champions with a combined 13 gold medals are competing in this first edition of the year!

The first hurdle in Buenos Aires is the semi finals, from which 21 countries will qualify for the final as usual.

We are so excited, so let's get inside the Estadio Único de La Plata for the semi finals!

​Let the show begin here!

​

​No voting reminders!

As I will be out travelling during  the first half of January, I will not be able to send you reminders to vote on time!

You have to remember this yourselves!

Votes are due on January 18th.

14th Global Music Royalty

It's Nelly Furtado!

You had 3 Global Music Champions to choose from for the honour, and with 42% of the votes, you have chosen to induct Nelly Furtado into our Hall of Fame as Global Music Royalty.
​
Read all about her inscription.

And don't forget to nominate your favourite for the next round of honours!
The form is here.

Don't forget about the Super Final!

It is once again time for the annual Super Final!

Each year all the songs winning medals that year compete for the ultimate honour, when they face off against each other in one big final.

This year we are in Philidelphia in the United States, as P!nk won the 2017 Super Final, despite not winning her regular edition. So anything can happen in the Super Final.

​Don't miss out on having your say, when we crown the best song in 2018!
