intervision song contest

The Intervision Song Contest (ISC) was the Eastern Bloc equivalent to the Eurovision Song Contest. Its organiser was the Intervision, the network of Eastern Europe television stations (see: Eurovision). It took place in the Opera Lesna in Sopot, Poland. The ISC was organised between 1977 and 1980. It replaced the Sopot International Song Festival (Sopot ISF) that had been held in Sopot since 1961. In 1981 martial law was introduced in Poland and the ISC/Sopot ISF was cancelled. From 1984 Polish television TVP resumed the organisation of this festival, but with the old name of the Sopot ISF. The winners of the Sopot ISF receive the Amber Nightingale.
