Edition 5

Edition 5 is the fifth edition of Festivali I Globe Contest. It was hosted in Naganoken, Japan, after their win with Rina Sawayama in Edition 4. Despite being the largest edition yet, it went back to not including semi-finals.

The winning act was "Deluded" by Kate Miller-Heidke, representing Australia, which scored 244 points and currently holds the record for highest points scored.

Art
The art for this edition went back to the Edition 1 style of logo, with the original wavy design. This is due to the designer of the Edition 1 logo quitting in Edition 2, but coming back this edition. The logo shows a wavy picture of Naganoken, with "FiGC" displayed above "naganoken edition 05". The dot in the "i" in "FiGC" is the Japan Eurovision heart, to represent the host country.

Host
The host city was announced by the Japanese head of delegation slightly later than usual. The head of delegation selected Naganoken.

Grand Final
The grand final took place on 9 March 2021.

Due to Canada, Thailand, and United Kingdom failing to vote, their points were divided by two. Had they not had their points sanctioned, Canada would've come 3rd with 131 points, Thailand 15th with 77, and United Kingdom would've still come last, but with 57 points.

The winner was Australia, who received 91 jury points, and 151 televote points, for a total of 244 points, which broke the point record.
