Carrelie Songfestival 1954 was the fourth edition of the Carrelie Songfestival. The contest was the fourth to be hosted in Haufenburg and the last to be hosted in a non-winning nation until 1964.
The winner of the contest was Dentricia's Déana Böléfarine with "É çe nôn pâçe", written and composed by Réalïe Lépéçe, with 80 points. It became the first of many Dentrician wins in the contest.
Location
The 1954 Songfestival was the fourth held in the Carelian capital of Haufenburg, which up until that point had been a permanent home for the contest. By the time of the contest, Die Palladium was in relative disrepair and during the contest a section of the lobby collapsed, though luckily there were no injuries and the show continued as usual. The venue was closed immediately after the contest and eventually renovated and reopened in 1971 for the 1971 festival.
Participants
Five nations participated in this contest, each sending two songs. TBI had intended to submit two Efyrian entries to the contest, though these plans were later abandoned after no suitable national final could be held. Achanor also did not participate, their broadcaster AÖF citing financial troubles as the reason for their non-participation. 1953 winner Marie Périer became the first person to attempt to defend their winning title, though did so unsuccessfully.
Conductors
Each participating nation had a conductor who conducted the orchestra.
