Mappervision Song Contest XXVII

The Mappervision Song Contest XXVII was the twenty-seventh annual edition of the Mappervision Song Contest. It is based on Eurovision but with alternate countries (nations) in Mapperdonia.

It takes place in Calgary, Western Republic following the nation's victory at the October 2017 edition with Alan Walker performing The Spectre. This is second time when Western Republic won the Mappervision Song Contest but first time when they host the contest.

Location
Shortly after the Western Republic won the previous edition, the Western Broadcasting Corporation, the national broadcaster of Western Republic started to seek the host city and host venue for the twenty-seventh Mappervision Song Contest. Four venues sent a bid for hosting the contest and these venues were Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Staples Center in Los Angeles, WestAir Centre in Calgary and Gila River Arena in Phoenix.

The Western Broadcasting Corporation announced that WestAir Centre in Calgary would be the host venue for the 27th Mappervision Song Contest. WestAir Centre has a capacity of approximately 24,000 attendees.
