Three hundred and ninety-seven – Previewing the second half of Junior Eurovision 2025

[JESC2025: 397 – Bring out more kids!]

So many kids, so little time… but they’re all so so talented, and representing their countries in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest being held on Saturday 13 December (5pm CET) in Tbilisi.

Michael and Io preview the second half of this year’s Contest and there’s a lot to talk about. Michael has a Book Week favourite and Io laments the loss of kid-first songs. But what do you think? Make sure you vote at jesc.tv!

Watch the show on YouTube (live from 3am AEST on 14 December)
