| This year for the very first time Junior ESC
or ESC for Kids will take place. Though this event is not in main course of this site,
there were many requests that we should do some reviews of it. So this page appeared. So, on November, 15, 2003 in Copnhagen, Denmark, the first edition of Junior ESC will take its place. As it was reported interest to the participation in the event was so high that EBU had to make a draw to determine what countries will participate. So this 15 countries appeared to be winners of that draw: Belgium (VRT/RTBF), Croatia (HRT), Denmark (DR), Germany (ARD/NDR), Greece (ERT), Latvia (LTV), FYR Macedonia (MKRTV), Malta (MT/PBS), Netherlands (NPB/AVRO), Norway (NRK), Romania (RO/TVR), Slovakia (SK/STV), Spain (TVE), Sweden (SE/SVT), and United Kingdom (UKIB/ITV). Cyprus was then added as 16th country. There is also information that Slovakia lately withdrew from the event, Germany was invited next, but declined participation, so final place will go to Belarus. Prototype of Junior ESC was Nordic Junior Song Contest, that is taking place in Denmark, that's why this country was selected to host European-scale event. Venue will be Copenhagen Forum, with 8000 seats. Hosts of the first contest will be Camilla Ottesen and Remee. Previous report suggested that this role should go to Ronan Keating, who also hosted Adult ESC in 1997. Also as Guest Stars were invited such singers like Robbie Williams, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears, but none of them confirmed participation as yet. Rules of the contest are almost same with senour Eurovision ones. All participants should not be older than 15 years. Questionable moment is that same limitations are applied to authors of the song too. Second edition will take place in London, UK, on November, 20, 2004. Now let's introduce you participants of this year (now list is sorted in order of presentation): Full list of participants in National finals and some lyrics of winning songs are available at this page. Official site of the contest where you can find multimedia files is www.junioreurovision.tv, we also recomend eurofan website (in Spanish), dr.dk, ESC DK and eurosong.dk (in Danish).
