Bringing her experience to Junior Eurovision once again
This will not be the first time that Nicole will be assisting the Spanish delegation with their Eurovision performances. Nicole was the artistic director for Spain’s Junior Eurovision 2019 performance with Melani Garcia’s entry “Marte” which placed 3rd. In 2020, Nicole was due to help with Blas Cantó’s performance at the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest. Unfortunately, the contest was canceled.
Other than working with the Spanish delegation, Nicole also worked with the Austrian delegation in 2014 with Conchita Wurst’s “Rise Like a Phoenix” which ended up winning in Copenhagen.

Spain’s Junior Eurovision Journey
In 2003, Spain was one of the countries to participate in the inaugural edition of the competition with Sergio and the song “Desde el cielo”, and placed 2nd with 125 points. The year after, Spain managed to win the competition with María Isabel and the song “Antes muerta que sencilla”. The nation participated for two more years and took a 12-year break, where it returned in 2019, with Melani Garcia and her entry “Marte” which placed 3rd.
Spain’s recent attempt in the competition saw them internally select Soleá and the song “Palante”, which saw them finish 3rd once again, where they managed to score 133 points from the jury and the online vote.
