Junior Eurovision 2018 – Day 1 Rehearsal Recap

Ireland – Taylor Hynes

Bright, bold graphics on the screens and a confident on-stage presence from Taylor. Ireland’s first use of backing dancers at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest really brings to life one of the contest’s more upbeat entries.

Albania – Efi Gjika

Pink summarises this rehearsal nicely – the colour, not the pop artist – but the entry also has some really cute cartoon animation on the screens, a charismatic performer looking to engage the crowd in front of her and plenty of camera shots of the audience too! 

Belarus – Daniel Yastremski

The home entry has brought prop after prop after prop! Why not when you’re hosting the whole thing, eh? Ending the day in style full of choreography, slick camera shots and great use of the screens to tell the story of the song.
