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, concert hall located on Île Seguin.[1][5] The contest will be held on 19th December, marking the first time the contest has been held in December since 2012, and the latest date of the contest ever.

Bidding phase and host city selection

Location of the chosen host city (blue)

Originally, unlike its adult version, the winning country did not receive the rights to host the next contest. However for the contests from 2011 onwards (with the exceptions in 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]

Format

Visual design

The theme for the contest, Imagine, was revealed on 20 May 2021 during a press conference prior to the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.[9] 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.[10]

Provisional list of participants

The following countries have confirmed their intention to participate in the 2021 edition. Ireland and Portugal are to return after a year of absence.

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.[24]

Active EBU members

  •  Albania – The Albanian broadcaster, RTSH, has announced that they will make a final decision on participation in June.[25] As of July 2021, there have been no public statements from the broadcaster regarding participation in the contest.
  •  Belgium – In April 2021, the Flemish broadcaster VRT ruled out the possibility of them fronting a return to the contest in 2021, followed by the Walloon broadcaster RTBF revealing in June that they would not support a participation either, stating that it was "too expensive".[26][27] Belgium last participated in 2012, while their last Walloon entry was in 2005.
  •  Estonia – Eesti Rahvusringhääling (ERR) confirmed Estonia will 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.
  •  Italy – After withdrawing from the 2020 contest due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Italian broadcaster RAI confirmed in June 2021 that the country would not be returning for the 2021 contest,[30][31] subsequently citing a lack of necessary preparation time, their focus on other local initiatives, and preparing to host the adult contest in 2022.[32] Italy last participated in 2019.
  •  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 Junior contest and the cost of participation. Lithuania last participated in 2011.[33]
  •  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".[34] However, they later announced that the country will not debut in this year's contest.[35]
  •  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.[36] 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.[37][38] Wales last participated in 2019.

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

Associate EBU members

  •  Kazakhstan – After the 2020 contest, Kazakhstan's Head of Delegation stated that it is highly likely the country will participate in the 2021 edition, but that a final decision will be made at a later date, assuming they are invited by the EBU.[55]

Non-EBU members

  •  Belarus – Belarusian broadcaster BTRC was suspended from the EBU on 28 May 2021. BTRC was given two weeks to respond before the suspension came into effect, but there was no public response.[56] The broadcaster 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.[57] Belarus last participated in 2020.
