On the 11th of September, 2022, Niagara Falls was selected as the host city for the third edition of the LiuVision Song Contest.

Production and Format
The show's production utilised a Discord VC (Voice Channel) and ScoreWiz (Eurovision-style scoreboard creation website).

The show began much the same way as Eurovision, with the track Te Deum, an opening performance by Avril Lavigne, and announcement of hosts.

After the opening, the songs of  Ukraine, Israel,  Germany  Armenia and  Finland were played, before an interval intermission.

After the intermission, the songs of the United States,  Lithuania,  Russia,  Australia and  Norway were played, before a secondary intermission.

After the intermission, the songs of Wales,  Greece,  Vatican City,  France, and  Italy were played, before a third intermission break.

After the intermission, the songs of  Singapore,  Sweden,  Latvia and  England were played.

Once the final song had been played, voting was announced to have begun, and a recap played.

An interval act from Celine Dion and Grimes took place, followed by the announcement of voting closing.

The voting sequence took place on ScoreWiz, before the announcement of the winner:  Ukraine, receiving 167 points.

The winning song replayed, and credits were shown, concluding the broadcast.

Controversy
Whilst the announcer were reading out the votes for Latvia, Steve, who was previously been involved in a controversy where he chose an American band to represent Latvia, decided to interrupt the jury voting sequence by announcing his sets of point himself without letting the organiser know in advanced. Less than 2 weeks later, Steve was banned.
