The Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2009 will be the seventh edition of Junior Eurovision Song Contest and will take place in Kiev, Ukraine. It has been scheduled for 21 November.[1] 13 countries has been confirmed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) to compete in the Contest.[3]

Location

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) invited broadcasters to bid for the rights to host the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2009; three bids were received from Belarus, Serbia, and Ukraine.[4] TV4 of Sweden had originally sent in a bid during summer 2007, but soon withdrew its bid after deciding to completely withdraw from the contest.[5] After deliberations by the EBU, National Television Company of Ukraine was granted the rights to the 2009 contest and will host it in Kiev.[6] Ukraine also hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 at the same venue.

Logo of the contest titled "Tree of life" is based on the artwork "Sunflower of life" by Maria Primachenko, a renowed Ukrainian folk art painter. Creative design of the show will be based on the logo of the contest, works and ideas of Primachenko as well as on the concept of the show, titled "For the joy of people". [7]

Participants

The EBU announced the complete list of participating countries in the 2009 Contest on 8 June 2009. 13 countries will compete in the contest: Armenia, Belarus, Belgium, Cyprus, Georgia, Macedonia, Malta, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, Serbia,Sweden and Ukraine.[3] Sweden will return after missing the contest, while Bulgaria, Greece and Lithuania will withdraw from the Contest.[3]
