The BBC, the British national broadcaster, have begun their search for the 2023 Junior Eurovision Song Contest, in Nice.

The process to select the act and song for 2023 is now underway and is being led by BBC Studios Entertainment and Music with CBBC. Further details, including the UK’s act and song, as well as who will be commentating for the UK, will be announced in due course.

This autumn, BBC Children’s will also look back at Freya Skye’s journey with a special My Life documentary to be broadcast on CBBC and BBC iPlayer. There will be a further half-hour documentary following this year’s act on CBBC and BBC iPlayer in advance of the live contest.

Patricia Hidalgo, Director BBC Children’s and Education, had the following to say:

“Following on from the fabulous spectacle of the Eurovision Song Contest earlier this year in Liverpool, we are so proud to once again bring Junior Eurovision to the BBC and to give children and their families the opportunity to enjoy this incredible show together.”
