City vs Country (Finnish: Stadi vs. Lande) is a Finnish primetime entertainment quiz show broadcast on MTV3.

The original Finnish format is hosted by two stand up talents Jaakko Saariluoma and Kalle Lamberg.[1][2]
An international version of the show will be broadcast in autumn 2022 in Hungary by TV2.[3] A version of the show aired previously in Lithuania on TV3. Other countries are interested in the idea of the format as well.
