Junior Eurovision Song Contest
◄2011 • 2012 • 2013►

The Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012 was the tenth edition of the contest. It took place at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam, Netherlands on 1 December 2012.[1][6] Dutch broadcaster AVRO was the host broadcaster for the event.[7] For the second time the Netherlands will host the contest, after hosting the contest in 2007 in Rotterdam. The motto for the contest was "Break The Ice".[8]

The show was hosted by Ewout Genemans and Kim-Lian van der Meij. The show was opened with the song Euphoria from Loreen performed by Rachel. The song Break the Ice by Kim-Lian van der Meij which was specially written for this contest and the 2009 winner Ralf Mackenbach performed also.[2] Twelve countries took part in the contest, making it the smallest number of countries participating in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest history, and equalling the number of countries participated in the 1970 Eurovision Song Contest held at RAI Congrescentrum. Israel, Albania and Azerbaijan made their debuts at the Junior Contest.[3] Whilst nine countries from the previous edition continued their participation in the contest, four countries have withdrew: Lithuania, Bulgaria, Latvia and Macedonia. The contest was won by Anastasiya Petryk for Ukraine with the song "Nebo". This is Ukraine's first Junior Eurovision victory and second Eurovision victory since Ruslana won in the 2004 Eurovision Song Contest in Istanbul. Ukraine's winning margin of 35 points was also a record.

Lua error in Module:Details at line 30: attempt to call field '_formatLink' (a nil value). Amsterdam is the largest city and the capital of the Netherlands. The city's status as the capital of the nation is governed by the constitution.[9] The city is located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country. Amsterdam's name is derived from Amstelredamme,[10] indicative of the city's origin: a dam in the river Amstel. Settled as a small fishing village in the late 12th century, Amsterdam became one of the most important ports in the world during the Dutch Golden Age, a result of its innovative developments in trade. During that time, the city was the leading center for finance and diamonds.[11] In the 19th and 20th centuries, the city expanded, and many new neighborhoods and suburbs were formed.

On 27 February 2012 it was announced that the Heineken Music Hall (or commonly abbreviated as HMH) will be the venue for the tenth edition of the contest. The big hall (also called Black Box) is used for concerts, has a capacity of 5500 and is 3000 m². After parties are given in a smaller hall, with a capacity of 700. The Heineken Music Hall was specially designed for music shows, several artists like Madonna and Kylie Minogue made shows at the venue. Furthermore, it is often used by the Dutch Entertainment Company Q-dance for the Event-Series X-Qlusive taking place several times a year.
