The Bundesvision Song Contest 2014 was the tenth edition of the annual Bundesvision Song Contest musical event. The contest was held on 20 September 2014 at the Lokhalle in Göttingen, Lower Saxony,[1] following Bosse's win in the 2012 contest in Berlin with the song "So oder so". The contest was hosted by Stefan Raab, and Elton in the green room.[2]
