AleziRadio Festival of Songs 1970 is the thirteeth edition of the annual AleziRadio Festival of Songs. It was held on 16th of May 1970, which meant that the competition returned to its usual date after delays that happened last year.

The competition was held by Radio Pyalivostok after Aziz Goridagyev Novogrody's second victory last year. Pyalivostok had hosted the competition before in 1959, 1962, 1965, and 1968. It was held in Olyben Theatre of Yakovskut, which was, and still is, the second biggest city in Pyalivostok, recording a population of 310,000 as of 1970.

Ha'vot She'asan from last year returned representing Tel Hadiv, and Hasyim Riza returned after representing Zafizamarrah and Isma'il Lasmaruddin representing Basna in 1958.

Incidents

Pyalivostokgrad Case

Radio Pyalivostok was under fire once again due to its decision to pick Yakovskut as the host of the competition compared to the much more plausible and effective choice of Pyalivostokgrad. Radio Pyalivostok reasoned that the competition is a great ground to introduce otherwise unknown towns in Pyalivostok, and they also said that "At least it's not Yovonyk".

Fortunately, the competition went as planned especially since Yakovskut is located very near to the capital of Pyalivostokgrad itself, and the competition is deemed as successful.

Orchestra Tantrum

Initially, the orchestra of Pyalivostok Philarmonic Orchestra which played the instrumental to all songs in the edition was going to be directed by Nokov Yadreny. However, during rehearsals, Yadreny was not impressed with the orchestra's performance that it angered him and prompted him to break the conducting stick in two. There was speculated to be recorded footage of the happening in ABA's (who nowadays hold all of AleziRadio's old footages) archives. However, since ARFOS was not broadcasted to television audiences (publicly) yet, this footage was yet to be found.

Eventually, Radio Pyalivostok and Pyalivostok Philarmonic Orchesta agreed to kick Yadreny out of the competition due to his "destructive" behaviour, and the conducting job was given to Dershmon Aldenov.
