Polynesian Song Festival

The Polynesian Song Festival, often shortened to PSF is a song contest as well as national selection on Youtube held, primarily, among the member countries of the Polynesian region within the Own Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union since February 2022. The competition is based upon the existing Own Asiavision Song Contest held among the member countries of the OABU since 2015. The current and official executive supervisor are Lewis, Holiday and Uhsting.

Each country's head of delegation gets to select a various amounts of entries for each edition to compete in the competition. Then the countries get to vote for each show (or final) to determine the the winner of the edition, and most importantly, which song will be represented by the competing countries for the following Own Asiavision Song Contest.

Origins
The first ever Polynesian Song Festival started in February 2022. It was held in the capital cities of Niue, Samoa and Tonga which also were the first ever countries to host the Polynesian Song Festival, and OABU event in general. 3 nations took part in the first edition, which were also the host nations only, with Samoa and Tonga submitting 4 songs into the selection and Niue submitting 2. Each country in the OABU is invited to vote in the contest, awarding 12 points to their favorite, 10 points to their second favourite and then 8 points to 1 point for the rest.

The first contest was won by TBA.
