Eurovision is a contest known all over the world. It is the brightest event in the spring. Participating countries begin preparations for it well in advance: some organize competitions among performers within their country, others are guided by the popularity of artists.

The choice of some participants is sometimes frightening, and sometimes makes you fall into depression, in anticipation, in the opinion of many, of the collapse of morality on Earth. For example, in 2014 the list of Eurovision winners was replenished with the name of Conchita Wurst…

Eurovision yesterday, today, tomorrow. Contest Transformation

In the first year of its existence, Eurovision had a unifying and entertaining character. Tired of wartime, people wanted to take a break from the vanity of everyday life.

Now Eurovision is a rather outrageous contest, which is often accused of bias, politicization, and sometimes of immorality. However, despite the change in direction, Eurovision from year to yeargetting brighter and better. It is important to note that the competition has outgrown the previously designated framework - singing competitions among representatives of the adult contingent. This is evidenced by the list of Eurovision winners throughout history.

Since 2003, the Junior Eurovision Song Contest has been held. It is an analogue of an adult with the only difference: the age limit is up to 15 years. The list of winners of the Junior Eurovision has already included 12 names. Its main difference from its adult counterpart is the presence of an annually changing slogan (the only year in which it was absent was 2010).
