Venue
The venue of the Pure Roots stage was decided throughout December 2016. A total of five cities have put forward a bid to host the contest, with the winner being decided in four elimination stages by delegates.

The winning bid was announced January 3 2016. The WINNER Stadium in Qwoppi, Zzzaaa was announced as the host venue of the contest, defeating Kot-ii Science & Tech University in Dangture City, Allico by 71-29. There was speculation that bribing occured throughout the voting process, and that many Zzzaaani representatives were seen offering sums of money to voting delegates, as well as tampering some of the votes. However CBU made a press release stating "Despite what may be said about the voting process this year, the WINNER Stadium won by an impressive margin and that cannot be argued with. I guess it's not called WINNER Stadium for no reason!" CBU officials also urged people to come to terms with the bid and accept "Chummervision at the WINNER Stadium will be a WIN for all of Chummerope when one country WINS this February. So let's just have some fun."

Semi-Final 1
The first semi-final took place on 1 March. UOCT Republic and Zzzaaa voted and performed in this semi-final.

Semi-Final 2
The second semi-final took place on 2 March. Aitze, Dandenia and W'ree voted and performed in this semi-final.
