Earlier this evening, further details of this year’s Junior Eurovision Song Contest were announced. The slogan is the most tangible of the details – this year we see the return of the hashtag been used, #LightUp.
The date for the contest has officially been set as Sunday 25th November and will take place in the Minsk Arena – the same location as the 2010 contest.
Alongside the slogan, the logo was also revealed (as seen above), based around a morning star made of vertically inverted soundwaves.
Stay with us here at Eurovision Ireland, where we will continue to follow the build up to this year’s contest in Minsk. What do you think of today’s announcements? Let us know by commenting below or via our Social Media feeds.

I’m not sure it’s the best idea in the world to have a slogan that encourages impressionable young people to “light up.”
