:lovedup:

opening ceremony show is serving quality like similar to olympic games :flutter:

:clap1: awesome, armenian christmas songs and dressups like polar bear, reindeer, pinguin characters :love:

running order

meet Italy's artist

.

i am happy about us being the show opener, i knew it, as La Festa is such a feel good party banger

good draws for Italy, Georgia, Portugal, Ukraine i think


Spain and UK :skull: two similar uptempo pop songs, good thing Freya performs after Carlos then



Kazakhstan have what it takes to outslay Poland in that order yes, not a good draw for Poland at all, Laura could end up becoming lost there against the crowdpleasing and vocal violence respectively by Luna and David

am really excited for this :love:

Come ON Queen Luna, our show opener



also think Italy, Georgia, Serbia stand good chances at the win



Ukraine shouldn't win at all, will get a good result but no win, mostly negative comments for their entry now

45 minutes until the show begins

https://junioreurovision.tv/mediacen...g-contest-2022

serbia's katarina won't perform live due to medical reasons, but a footage of 2nd dress rehearsal will be shown

Freya finished 5th with the UK topping the public vote but as she was unable to perform all week her jury votes were not great
