Elvira Sarykhalil will represent Crimea at the inaugural Turkvizyon contest in Turkey this December. She beat off competition from 12 other acts in a show where the winner was decided by a jury. Crimea hold high hopes for a bigger and more extensive national final next year, which would be spread over a number of weeks instead of a one-off final. Her song has not been announced.
