AVROTROS, the Dutch national broadcaster, continues to broadcast Junior Songfestival 2026 – their national selection for the 2026 Junior Eurovision Song Contest.

During the eighth episode (which can be seen below), you’ll get to know the finalists better. Benjamin, Catelynn, Lay, Nolan, Noud, Maria, Saige, Vajèn, and Zoë introduce themselves and share something about themselves that you might not have known at all.

During the ninth episode (which can be seen below), the Junior Songfestival finalists are heading off to camp. Hanging out in the tent, doing fun things, eating candy, and staying up as late as possible. This year’s theme is Western.

From tomorrow, Monday 10th August, the official videos for this year’s competing entries will be revealed.
