AleziRadio Festival of Songs 1967 is the tenth edition of the annual AleziRadio Festival of Songs. It was held on 16th of May 1967, which was held and organized by Radio Zafizamarrah after Makarina Hisyamuraddin's victory last year. This is the third time that the region has hosted the competition in its territory, and the first time that a region hosted twice in a row after doing so last year.

Celebrating its 10th edition, The competition returned to its roots by returning the competition to the Independence Hall, which was the host of the first ever host venue of ARFOS. Other than that, the competition saw most of the staff of the previous year returning, with the exception of the presenter, Nurayda Hasyima, which also presented the first competition.

The competition saw Daya Island finally debuting separately from Pyalivostok, bringing the total of entries to 18. The Island itself has sent a song representing Pyalivostok, which won the competition in 1964 after a tight tie-breaker round.

For the competition, the Independence Hall is expanded to allow additional 2,000 seats, making the competition watched by 6,000 people in the hall, and 170 million people listening on AleziRadio, making history as one of the most-watched editions in the history of the competition. The year also saw an introduction of the first quartet on the competition, which is a team called "Helsinki" representing Daya Island.

And for the first time, interval acts are introduced as a way to introduce more of the host region's culture. This year, two interval acts happened. The first one is Makarina Hisyamuraddin who won last year singing her winning song "حقيقة", which was enacted between Song No. 9 and Song No. 10. The second one is an opera performance by Isamurania Nahluddina of the song "Maqqa", which was a hit in North Alezia at the time. It was enacted after the last song, which also used as a gap in order to give the juries more time on grading their songs.
