The Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2011 was the ninth edition of the annual Junior Eurovision Song Contest, and took place in Yerevan, Armenia at the Karen Demirchyan Sports and Concerts Complex.[1] It was the first time in history of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest that the contest was held in the previous year's winning country. Public Television of Armenia ARMTV was the main organizer of the show, being provided financial aid from the European Broadcasting Union made of entrance fees from the participating broadcasters, while Swedish company HD Resources assisted with the technical side of the production.[6]

Thirteen countries participated, with Malta and Serbia withdrawing and Bulgaria returning. The winner was the group Candy from Georgia with the song "Candy Music".[7] Netherlands and Belarus finished in second and third place, respectively. This was Georgia's second victory in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest following a previous victory in 2008.

Location

Further information on the host city: Yerevan
Karen Demirchyan Sports and Concerts Complex, in Yerevan. Venue for the 2011 Junior Eurovision.

On 18 January 2011, Armenian national broadcaster ARMTV and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) announced that the 2011 contest would take place in the Karen Demirchyan Sports and Concerts Complex, in Yerevan.[1] The complex consists of two main halls; the Concerts hall and the Sports hall, in addition to the large foyer, Hayastan conference hall and Argishti hall designated for diplomatic meetings, exhibitions and other events.

Format

Logo and graphic design

In May 2011, ARMTV announced a competition for children to design the official logo of the contest, which was due to be presented on 1 June.[8] However, in the end the logo was designed by a professional teams from ARMTV, the EBU and Studio of Anton Baranov from Belarus, who also designed logo of Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2010 and was presented on 15 July 2011.[9] The logo depicts equalizer bars in the shape of a mountain, hinting a toy version of the famous Mount Ararat.[9]

The graphics were made by an Icelandic called Guðmundur Þór Kárason who previously worked on the Icelandic children's show LazyTown and was a photographer for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010.[10] The postcards were produced and directed by him alongside Arthur Vardanyan.

The logo is vibrant, young and playful. The slogan "Reach For The Top" really reflects the ambition of the contestants, and hopefully inspires a young generation of Armenians to do the same.[9]

— Sietse Bakker, Executive Supervisor of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest

Voting rules changes

Changes to the voting included that televoting was possible after all songs had been performed, and not from the beginning of the show as in previous years – returning to the rules active in 2003–2005. Each country's spokesperson also announced all the points during their presentation, due to the lower number of participating countries, as it was done in 2003–2004.[11][12]

Participants

On 15 July, the EBU announced that 12 countries would compete in the upcoming contest. San Marino was to compete for the first time, while Latvia, Serbia and Malta withdrew.[11] EBU also had been negotiating with several other countries, including Italy[13] and Spain,[citation needed] but they were not able to confirm their participation due to the shortage of time.[14] On 15 August, it was announced that Bulgaria had joined the list, returning after a two-year absence from the contest.[15] On 9 September, Latvia reversed its decision to withdraw from the contest and would now send a participant.[16] However, on 7 October it was announced that San Marino would not be present in Armenia as they were not able to find a suitable participant in time for the contest, hoping to send an entry to the 2012 edition.[17] Therefore, a total of 13 countries took part in Armenia.[18]

Together with AMPTV, we are eager to put together the coolest Junior Eurovision Song Contest that Europe has seen so far. The event is extremely popular in Armenia and their strong bid gave us the confidence they will be capable to put together a great show.[1]

— Sietse Bakker, Executive Supervisor of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest

Returning artists

Even though rules of Junior Eurovision do not allow participation of returning artists - EBU issued special permission for Russian entry 2011 performed by participant of Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2009 Ekaterina Ryabova, which is first similar case in history of the contest. According to Sietse Bakker, EBU coordinator - EBU may also drop this rule completely, starting from 2012.[5] Notably, Ekaterina had also already applied to national preselection in 2010 as well, but was disqualified following the existing rule.[19]

Final

Each country gave their votes through a 50% jury and 50% televoting system, which decided their top ten songs using the points 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1.
