The Kiddy Contest was a televised singing competition for children from 8 to 14 years, broadcast and organized annually by the Austrian broadcaster ORF from 1995 to 2011. It was also broadcast in Germany on ZDF, RTL and Nickelodeon. Since 2012, the show is only airing on the Austrian commercial broadcaster Puls 4. The format was invented by the music producers Erwin Kiennast and Norman Weichselbaum.

Every year ten children from Germany, Austria and Switzerland sing a current pop hit, for which Norman Weichselbaum has written a new German text. The audience determines the winner via voting. From season 1 to 15 there were also duets.

Broadcast

The Kiddy Contest 1996 took place on a saturday morning in November 1996. During the Kiddy Contest 1995 and 1996 the semifinals took place over the course of several weeks for the ORF / Confetti TiVi program "Saturday Game" moderated by Edith Rolles.

In 1997 there were separate Kiddy Contest semi-finals, which was also shown for five weeks on saturdays in Confetti Tivi. It was moderated by Elmer Rossnegger. From 1998, there was no semifinals more on television, the pre-selection was made by a panel of experts. In 2015, the semi-finals were broadcast on the two saturdays before the final. On both days, ten children each came and sang against each other in a duet. Only five of them each reached the final.

The Kiddy Contest was not only broadcast on ORF 1, but has also aired several times on German television, where it was freely available throughout Europe on the satellite Astra 1. In the years 2000 to 2002 the channel ZDF acted as a co-organizer of the program, during which the participants came from Germany and the program was shown on ZDF. In the years 2001 and 2002 it was transferred to KiKA. After 2002, ZDF decided not to participate anymore and the Kiddy Contest 2003 became a purely Austrian production.

Already in 2004, ORF again found a new partner. This time it was the German private channel Super RTL. The transmission scheme wasn't changed, but Super RTL was also forced to renounce the otherwise usual advertising interruptions during the show. The cooperation with Super RTL lasted until 2006.

The Kiddy Contest 2007 was again a single production of ORF. The previous specials in the lunch program were replaced by the series "Kiddy Contest – Das Camp", which was broadcast for several days in the afternoon program of ORF 1. The series documented the participation of the participants of the Kiddy Contest 2007 in Schloss Hof in Lower Austria.

In 2008 the Kiddy Contest was shown again on ORF 1 and Super RTL. The final took place on the 1 November 2008 at 20:15. The moderator of the show was again Mirjam Weichselbraun.

The Kiddy Contest 2009 was recorded in the Austria Center Vienna on 31 October 2009, and a week later on 7 November on ORF 1 at 4.45 pm. The show aired for the German fan base on the children's transmitter Nickelodeon in the German-speaking area a day later. The show was moderated by Benny Hörtnagl, star guests were Daniel Schuhmacher and Mandy Capristo (winner of season 7 / Monrose).

In 2010 the Kiddy Contest was broadcast live on ORF 1 with the new moderator Kati Bellowitsch. Nickelodeon showed a 60-minute summary a week later.

From 2012 to 2019, the private broadcaster Puls 4 secured the rights for the broadcast. The moderator of the show was Silvia Schneider from 2015 to 2018. Since 2015, the program has also been broadcast via live stream on the Internet and in the Puls 4 app. Alamande Belfor has been responsible for the choreography since 2017. Since 2019, Arabella Kiesbauer has been the host of the show again.

In 2020 the Kiddy Contest was canceled due to the Corona pandemic. In view of the still uncertain Corona situation in 2021, the producers announced on December 21, 2020 that the format would be discontinued and that the Kiddy Contest 2019 as the 25th anniversary show was the last.
