The Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021 will be held at the La Seine Musicale, Paris, France on Sunday December 19 (early morning on Monday December 20 in Australia).
19 countries are taking part. Unfortunately this year Australia confirmed that they will not be participating for a consecutive year due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, but fans of the Contest from Australia can still vote!
Online Public Voting
Online public voting will be open from Friday 17 December (Saturday 18 December for Australians) up until the beginning of the Contest. It's super easy to vote! Step 1: Go to vote.junioreurovision.tv Step 2: You will get to preview all the performances (you can also see below) Step 3: You then get the opportunity to vote for 3 of your favourite Junior Eurovision 2021 acts. Also it is a little different from the main Eurovision Contest, if the country you are from is participating in Junior Eurovision 2021 you can support them by voting for them!
Anyone from around the world can vote! The online voting stops just before the show begins and then will reopen after all participants have performed. It will then reopen for only a further 15 minutes. All the online votes will be converted into points and revealed during the show after the jury voting from each participating country have been announced. The winner of the Junior Eurovision 2021 will be determined by 50% professional juries and 50% online public voting.
