As preparations continue for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest in November, Malta have become the 13th country to confirm their participation. We can now rest assured that this contest won’t be as small as the 2012 or 2013 editions. More broadcasters are expected to confirm their position on the contest in the coming weeks.

PBS, the Maltese national broadcaster, have confirmed their participation in this year’s Junior Eurovision Song Contest. The confirmation came as they formally open up applications for their selection process.

The submissions will be reviewed by a panel of judges, who will shortlist applicants into 12 finalists. These finalists will perform their entries in a national final format in September. A combination of jury voting (50%) and public voting (50%) will choose the Maltese representative for Warsaw.

==The rules for applications are as follows==:

All applicants must be Maltese nationals between the ages of 9 and 14. All applicants must submit an original song which must not have been publicly performed before May 1 2020. Each act can include up to six artists (as per the EBU participation rules) Songs must ‘suit’ the age of the performer(s) and be ‘fun’ for the artist(s) to sing. The lyrics of the songs must be in either English or Maltese, or a mix of both. Lyrics in any other language must not make up more than 40% of the song. Applications close on Sunday 23 August, just over a month away. You can apply here.
