The hosts of this year’s Junior Eurovision Song Contest have been revealed by host broadcaster, TVP. The contest will be hosted by a team of three, including a returning host from last year’s contest.
The three hosts will take to the stage in Warsaw on the 29th of November, however this year’s contest will be presented in a different form. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the contest will be broadcast live from Warsaw, however the studio will only feature the presenters and necessary crew. Interval acts will also perform live from Warsaw. The participants will remain in their home countries, rather than travelling to Poland. Read more about the changes to format here.
