March 2009 saw the first edition of Forum Song Contest. It was held in Luxembourg City in Luxembourg, although the tiny European state did not participate itself. 18 countries were represented, all of them debutantes of course.
Alesha Dixon became the first FSC winning artist representing United Kingdom with her song "The Boy Does Nothing". Denmark and Macedonia completed the top three. On the other hand, Argentina came last and has not been returning to FSC after this edition.
The host of the Eurovision Song Contest 1984, Desiree Nosbusch and former alpine ski racer Marc Girardelli were the hosts of this edition.
The Host City[]
We have decided that the very first FSC would be held in a country that more than likely would never participate in FSC, so it would be a location equal towards all participants. Even though it's a small country it has a lot history and we're more than happy you welcome you to this great place. Enjoy Luxembourg (the capital name happens to be the same) and your stay!
The Hosts[]
The two hosts of the night are Desiree Nosbusch who has been a famous TV host and actress for over 20 years and Marc Girardelli who is a former is a former alpine ski racer and one of Luxembourg's most successful athletes.
