Eurovision Young Dancers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eurovision Young Dancers is a biennial dance showcase broadcast on television throughout Europe. Since 1985, using a format similar to the Eurovision Song Contest, every country that is a member of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) has had the opportunity to send a dance act to compete for the title of "Eurovision Young Dancer". The act can be either a solo act or a dance couple, and all contestants must be between the ages of 15 and 21 years. The winner is chosen by television viewers across the EBU through a real-time, electronic and onscreen voting mechanism.
In 2003, the competition awarded separate prizes for classical and contemporary dance.
