PBS has released the official rules and regulations for the upcoming edition of the Junior EuroSong 2008 - Malta’s national final for the Junior Eurovision 2008. The rules were devised by PBS officials following suggestions by the newly appointed EuroSong Advisory Team. The new rules are focusing more on giving a wider exposure to the local participants. The local selection will be held over three televised shows which are set to be screened on the 9th, 11th and 13th September 2008. PBS will organise Junior EuroSong 08 to select the Maltese entry for the sixth edition of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest - to be held on the 22nd November in Limassol Cyprus.
Local participants of the Junior EuroSong 08, aged between 10 and 15 years, may enter the competition with songs written either in Maltese and/or in the English language. Child participants are to be involved in composing/writing their own songs with the active assistance of adults. The children’s participation in the composition is essential. The lyrics of the songs, the dance movements (if any), and their clothes, are to respect the young age of the participants and not make the children seen like small adults.
Junior Eurosong 08 will be held over three televised shows from PBS studios in September 2008. A shortlist of 36 entries will make it to the televised shows of the 9th and 11th September. The best 16 entries of the two shows will participate in the final show, which will be held on Saturday 13th September. Singers will be allowed to perform only one song in the final of Junior EuroSong 08. Judges will be looking out for the best voices of the night!
