Junior Eurovision Song Contest

The Junior Eurovision Song Contest, often known simply as Junior Eurovision, is an international children's song competition organised annually by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) among its members since 2003. Each participating broadcaster submits an original song representing its country, to be performed by children of its choice aged 9 to 14, lasting three minutes at most, and broadcast live to all of them via the Eurovision and Euroradio networks, and then casts votes for the participating countries' songs to determine a winner. It is a spin-off of the Eurovision Song Contest with which it has many similarities.
