12Ville and Edition Raetia are launching a competition for artists born or resident in South Tyrol/Alto Adige: we are looking for an original Christmas song that captures the spirit of Christmas through the sensibility, language and musical style of our region. The selected song will be professionally produced and included in the official compilation Wish You a South Tyrol Christmas 2026, a project that will bring together a selection of South Tyrolean artists of different generations and languages.
Whether you play pop, rock, folk, electronic, jazz, R&B or experimental music, this is your chance to reinterpret Christmas with your artistic voice — in an instrumental version or in the languages of the region (Italian, German, Ladin or South Tyrolean dialect).
Applications are open from 22 December 2025 to 23 January 2026.
