The Eurovision Young Musicians 2024 is set to be the 21st edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians. It is set to take place in the Stormen Concert Hall in Bodø, Norway, on 17 August 2024.[1][2] It is organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) alongside host broadcaster Norsk Rikskringkasting (NRK).[3][4]

Location

The contest will be held at Stormen Concert Hall in Bodø, Norway

On 11 July 2023, the European Broadcasting Union announced on its official website that the contest would take place in the city of Bodø, Norway, during the city's role as European Capital of Culture.[3] On Twitter, the organisation confirmed that Stormen Concert Hall has been chosen as the venue in which the competition will take place.[5] This will be the second edition organised in Norway since the first one in 2000, when it was held in Bergen.[6]

Provisional list of participating countries

As of December 2023, six countries confirmed their intention to participate in the contest. Slovenia returns to the contest after being absent in the previous edition. On their Facebook post, the European Broadcasting Union announced there were ten participation slots available for broadcasters who wished to take part in the contest.[7][8]

Other countries

  •  Bulgaria – On 13 July 2023, Bulgarian national broadcaster BNT announced that they would not return for the 2024 edition.[20] Bulgaria last took part in 2006.
  •  Croatia – On 30 November 2023, Croatian national broadcaster HRT announced their withdraw from the 2024 edition without providing a reason.[21][22][23]
  •  Netherlands – On 14 November 2023, Dutch national broadcaster NTR announced that they would not return for the 2024 edition.[24] The Netherlands last took part in 2014.
  •  North Macedonia – In mid-September 2023, Macedonian broadcaster MRT published its budget plan for the 2023/2024 season, which allocates money towards participation in the 2024 editions of both ESC and JESC, but makes no mention of EYM.[25] While it was later clarified that the plan was still awaiting the approval of the government,[26] its approval would likely rule out a return of the country. North Macedonia last took part in 1994.
  •  Sweden – In the rules of the 2024 edition of Polstjärnepriset, the competition used to select Sweden's representative in Eurovision Young Musicians in the past, no mention of the winner participating in Eurovision Young Musicians is made, with the winner instead performing at a concert in Vänersborg in the autumn of 2024.[27] Swedish broadcaster SVT has yet to confirm whether a different selection method will be used or the country will withdraw from the competition.
