Theme

Logo for the 113th WorldVision Song Contest

The logo for WV113 was a completely alternate from the original WorldVision Logo. It featured a Lightning style font, connecting to the slogan for this edition, "The Power of Music". The main theme of this contest revolved around EDM, specifically songs made from the Label Monsterdog. The postcards showed the artist at their home nation, then being transported to Saint Monkey, and specifically region Light City and the Lightning Lake. It showed natural areas with names that had music in its name, which this region is known for naming things after music. For example, Crustyland's postcard was one of Dubsteptown, a town in the North of the region named after the music genre, Dubstep.

There were 4 interval acts, Sayonara by Kiana Knight, winner of the 112th WorldVision Song Contest, I Want You Back by Part Saturn feat. Morris Harrison, Talking to Myself by Gotcha and Powa and Power Of Music sung by Aurora Kucera, but was originally produced by Banutang.

Venue

Construction finished December 2014, and it was the last of the "MusicPeace" government project, in which governments across Saint Monkey built new music arenas, this one was built for a large capacity to host large scale events. It had a capacity of 29,000 and after a refurbishment, the capacity became 32,000 plus an extra 8,500 made of 5 fan zones in the car park surrounding the arena. The stage has shapes of Lightning bolts on it, in homage to the culture of Lightning in Light City and the whole region. The green room was directly in front of the stage, with the stands being behind and around the Green Room.
