Quotes

“This is a unique chance for BNT and Bulgaria to host one of the most prestigious music competitions in Europe. Krisia, Hassan and Ibrahim proved that success is possible. We also loved participating in the 2014 event put on by PBS Malta and were very impressed by the renewed energy, commitment and enormous talents of the children. We believe that Bulgaria, as the host country, will be a new platform to young talent from all over Europe while enlightening them to the beauty and traditions of our country.” BNT Director General Vyara Ankova.

“We are greatly looking forward to helping BNT Bulgaria in their preparations to host this year’s event. EBU and the Junior Eurovision Steering Group will do our utmost to ensure that all the children and broadcasters who participate will be part of a positive and fun event that gives them time in the spotlight and opportunities for creativity and friendship.” Executive Supervisor Vladislav Yakovlev.

The Arena

Junior Eurovision 2015 will be held in the state of the art Arena Armeec, which was opened in 2011. The venue has a capacity of up to 15,000 people for concerts, however this will be reduced for Junior Eurovision due to the stage, green room, camera positions and production facilities.
