France First Rehearsal 2021
Last up: it's Enzo from France... π«π·
Enzo’s performance is not understated! Expect an enormous staircase, a golden jacket, plus the illusion of several dozen dancers.
It’s clear a lot of thought has gone into this production, and Enzo is taking it all in his stride.

Kazakhstan First Rehearsal 2021
Alinur & Beknur have arrived on stage... π°πΏ
The pals have just rehearsed Ертегі әлемі (Fairy World) for the first time and it’s sounding great.


The staging is elegant and reflects the magical subject matter of the song beautifully… there’s even a surprise or two at the end.

Dajte Muzika delivers... π²π°

The group Dajte Muzika have taken to the stage with an energetic message of hope and environmental consciousness, told through the medium of dance floor stomper.

As with all the acts we’ve seen, these guys are pro – which is to be expected given that 'Dajte Muzika’ is one of the most popular TV shows in North Macedonia.

Albania First Rehearsal 2021
Olena Usenko commands the Junior Eurovision stage... πΊπ¦
Olena is now rehearsing Vazhil – and having written and composed the song herself it’s no surprise that the delivery is confident and heart-felt.
There are some neat tricks with augmented elements of the stage floor and, of course, lots and lots of strobe lights.

Anna Gjebreas delivers a masterclass in rehearsing... π¦π±
Anna’s first rehearsal goes off with a hitch, including some incredibly fun stunts with cardboard boxes at the beginning.

The set is influenced by artist Keith Haring.

The performance contains some innovative shadow work, which we wont spoil too much…
