Earlier this week, the EBU revealed that 16 countries will be competing in the 2022 Junior Eurovision Song Contest. Alongside this, they also revealed the theme for this year’s competition “Spin The Magic”, accompanied by a promotional video.
In a never-ending whirl bringing joy and fun to the young people
The organizers have chosen the “Spinning Top” and incorporated this into the competition. Speaking about the theme Hovhannes Movsisyan, CEO of Public TV of Armenia have mentioned the following:
‘It was very important for us to choose a symbol that would reflect the magic of the competition, and the 20th spin of Junior Eurovision that would unite all the children taking part.’
‘I am convinced that everyone has fond memories about this toy. While developing the idea, we realised that a lot of countries have spinning tops, each of them unique. This perfectly reflects the values of Junior Eurovision – everyone is united around the idea of magic, music and joy, and at the same time presenting a different song and performance.’
The design of the Junior Eurovision 2022 theme would then be incorporated into the colors of the flags of the 16 participating countries, as shown below:
