Tonight at the National Palace of Culture in Sofia, the 17 participants of this year's Junior Eurovision Song Contest attended a special draw for the running order. Bulgaria, as the host country, drew its exact starting position randomly. The remaining countries then entered the stage to determine who would perform: First, Last, in the First Half, and in the Second half.
After this was decided, the producers then met backstage to determine the final order to create the best show. The result of this is as follows:
Serbia
Georgia
Slovenia
Italy
The Netherlands
Australia
Ireland
Russia
FYR Macedonia
Belarus
Armenia
Ukraine
Bulgaria
San Marino
Malta
Albania
Montenegro
Rehearsals start tomorrow at 10:00 local time (09:00 CET), with Albania the first country to take to the stage!
