The Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021 will be the 19th edition of the annual Junior Eurovision Song Contest, organised by France Télévisions and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). The contest will be held on 19 December 2021 at the La Seine Musicale in Paris, France, following the country's victory at the 2020 contest with the song "J'imagine", performed by Valentina. This will be the first time the contest is held in France, as well as the first Eurovision event to be held in the country since Eurovision Young Dancers 1999 in Lyon and the first to be held in Paris since Eurovision Young Dancers 1989.[3]

Location

La Seine Musicale, venue of 2021 Junior Eurovision

On 9 December 2020 it was announced that the contest is set to take place in France in 2021.[4] It will be hosted in Paris at the La Seine Musicale, a 6,000-seat concert hall located on Île Seguin.[1][5] The contest will be held on 19 December, which is the latest date for the contest ever. The last time it was held in December was in 2012.

Bidding phase and host city selection

Originally, unlike its adult version, the winning country did not receive the automatic rights to host the next contest. However for the contests from 2011 onwards (with the exceptions of 2012 and 2018), the winning country had first refusal on hosting the next competition. Italy used this clause in 2015 to decline to host the contest after their victory in 2014. On 15 October 2017, the EBU announced a return to the original system in 2018, claiming that it would help provide broadcasters with a greater amount of time to prepare, ensuring the continuation of the contest into the future.

On 9 December 2020, it was confirmed by the EBU that France, having won the 2020 contest, would host the 2021 contest.[4] The French Head of Delegation Alexandra Redde-Amiel had previously stated that France Télévisions was keen to host the contest.[6] Spanish broadcaster TVE had also expressed an interest in hosting the contest if they had won the 2020 contest.[7]

On 20 May 2021, during a press conference held by France Télévisions and the EBU, it was confirmed that the contest would be held in Paris. It will be the second consecutive time the contest is held in a capital city.[8]

Production

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

On 24 August 2021, the EBU confirmed that due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, they are considering three scenarios in which the contest could be held. The three scenarios include:[9]

Scenario D, in which all acts would perform from their home countries as in the 2020 contest, is likely to be discarded due to the successful implementation of scenario B in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 and the ongoing pace of COVID-19 vaccinations across Europe.[10]

Regarding the audience, according to the press the plans are to have full capacity as of October 27th, 2021.[11][12]

Format

Visual design

The slogan for the contest, Imagine, was revealed on 20 May 2021 during a press conference prior to the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.[13] The slogan was chosen as a reference to the previous year's winning song "J'imagine", as well as a way to encourage children to be creative and pursue their dreams.[14]

The official logo and theme artwork for the contest was unveiled on 24 August 2021. The artwork was inspired by three themes: imagination, Christmas and the Eiffel Tower.[15]

Participating countries

19 countries were confirmed to be participating in the contest on 2 September 2021.[16] Albania, Armenia, Ireland, Italy, North Macedonia and Portugal will all return after a one-year absence, while Azerbaijan and Bulgaria will return after two and four-year absences respectively. For the first time since the contest's inception, Belarus will not participate, as the country's broadcaster BTRC is in the midst of a three-year suspension from the EBU.[17][18]

The Russian representative, Tanya Mezhentseva, has participated in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest before; she represented Russia in 2019 along with Denberel Oorzhak, finishing in 13th place with the song "A Time for Us". This is only the third case (all of whom have been from Russia) in the competition to feature a returning artist from previous editions after Katya Ryabova (Russia 2009 and 2011) and Lerika (Moldova 2011 and Russia 2012).

Other countries

For a country to be eligible for potential participation in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest, it needs to be an active member of the EBU.[27]

Active EBU members

  •  Estonia – In June 2021, Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) confirmed that Estonia would not debut at the 2021 contest due to financial issues, but the broadcaster will consider debuting in the coming years.[28]
  •  Israel – The Israeli broadcaster, the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC), confirmed that they would not be participating in the junior contest due to focusing their efforts on the Eurovision Song Contest.[29] Israel last participated in 2018.
  •  Lithuania – In June 2021, Lithuanian Head of Delegation Audrius Giržadas confirmed that broadcaster Lithuanian National Radio and Television (LRT) would not be returning to the contest in 2021, citing low ratings during their time in the contest and the cost of participation.[30] Lithuania last participated in 2011.
  •  Slovakia – In April 2021, the Slovak broadcaster Radio and Television of Slovakia (RTVS) confirmed that they had "not closed the door to the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021".[31] However, they later announced that the country will not debut in this year's contest.[32]
  •  United Kingdom – At a Junior Eurovision press event in May 2021, the EBU stated that they were working to bring the United Kingdom back to the contest, possibly for the 2021 edition.[33] However, the country did not appear on the final list of participants in September. The United Kingdom last participated as a unified nation in 2005.
  •  Wales – S4C confirmed their non-participation in February 2021 due to "the current circumstances", implying to the difficulties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.[34][35] Wales last participated in 2019.

The following countries' broadcasters confirmed their non-participation without providing further information:

Associate EBU members

  •  Australia – In August 2021, Australian broadcaster SBS indirectly confirmed that discussions about participation in the 2021 edition were ongoing, suggesting that the country could return after a year of absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but did not disclose what their final decision was likely to be.[55][56] Later that month, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), who had organised Australia’s participation between 2017 and 2019, confirmed that they would not be participating in the 2021 contest, leaving the door open for SBS to take over if they were so inclined.[57] A day after ABC announced they wouldn't return, SBS stated they won’t return either.[58] Australia last participated in 2019.

Non-EBU members

  •  Belarus – Belarusian broadcaster BTRC was expelled from the EBU on 1 July, therefore losing the rights to broadcast and participate in the contest unless another Belarusian broadcaster joins the EBU.[59] In August 2021, it was confirmed that the suspension would last for three years, however, the EBU can review it at any point before it expires.[60]
