BELGIUM – Home of the waffle, Hercule Poirot and Sandra Kim. They begin their search for their Eurovision 2016 representative tomorrow Sunday January 3rd so we take a quick look backstage. Only winners once of the contest back in 1986, they hope to build on the success at the […]
Junior Eurovision had made it to its tenth edition, but things had taken a bit of a dive. Only 12 countries participated, which made it the smallest field to date. Four countries decided not to send entries this year – Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania and Macedonia. Some would return. […]
Junior Eurovision 2011 came around, and we had a number of new firsts. In every previous contest, the host has never been the winner of the previous year. This time, and not for the first time, Armenia hosted the contest after winning. It was their first time hosting […]
Three bids were received by the EBU for the 2010 Junior Eurovision Song Contest. Belarus won the right, over Russia and Malta.

He went down a treat in Vienna with his ‘Rhythm Inside’ and there seems to be no stopping our favourite Belgian Loïc Nottet. With his new album coming soon, Loïc has released a new video version of his Eurovision song ‘Rhythm Inside’. This version of the song is very much […]
The fourth Junior Eurovision saw it venture, for the first time, to a country that had never hosted the senior version. Romania’s nation broadcaster TVR beat the Dutch and Croatians for the honour to host. Naturally, as this was a first for Romania, they hosted it in Bucharest. […]
Two JESCs down, and it’s clear that it’s here to stay. The two winners to date were quality, and very mature in tone. Croatia, Spain and the UK had filled the top three places both times so far, but the remainder were gunning for them. As it’s turned […]
