With Junior Eurovision 2024 just over a couple of weeks away, the participating countries continue to reveal further information on its coverage of this year’s contest. This time, Germany has announced that Consi will again be their commentator.
Commentating for Germany for the fourth time
This won’t be the first time that Consi commentated for Germany, Consi has commentated for Germany since 2021. In addition to this, Consi was also a panelist on ‘Songcheck’, which is Germany’s Eurovision preview program, as well as the on-ground reporter for the German delegation for numerous years.
Germany’s Junior Eurovision Journey
Germany was originally due to join the Junior Eurovision family in the initial edition of the Contest, but unexpectedly withdraw. This also happened in 2004, when Germany withdrew ahead of the Contest in Lillehammer. It wasn’t until 2020 in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic that Germany first participated in a Junior Eurovision event. Germany has participated on three occasions, the first being 2020 – when Susan performed “Stronger With You”, finishing 12th in a field of 12.
Germany’s most recent participation came in 2023, when Fia represented the nation in Nice with her song “Ohne Worte”. Performing fifteenth in the running order, Germany would finish in 9th place out of 16 performers. Germany received a total of 107 points, 33 from professional juries and the remaining 74 from the online vote. To date this is Germany’s best result at the contest.
