Serbia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest

Shortly thereafter, the country split up and Serbia participated deubted individually in 2006. Although they have never won, they have already achieved some great results. Their best so far is twice a third place. Once in 2007 thanks to Eurovision 2019 candidate Nevena Božović. The other time was in 2010 with Sonja Škorić. 2018 was unfortunately a less good year for Serbia. Bojana Radovanović only came 19th out of 20 entries.
