Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2026 - Simulation

You vote as many times as you like

Pick your favourite and vote. You can vote again and again. Every vote is recalculated from zero, so the order you vote in does not matter.

Logged in, voting also fills your vote bar: every 10 votes give 5 points, and your first vote here gives 5.

Your vote becomes a jury or a televote vote

Each vote rolls the dice: 25% become jury votes and 75% become televote votes.

A country sends it

Then a country is chosen to send the vote. Bigger countries send more votes: the chance is size ÷ sum of all sizes (see the table). A country can never vote for itself.

The voting system: Classic Eurovision

Every jury and every televote gives 12, 10, 8–1 to its ten favourites (shorter scale with fewer than 11 entries).

Every country’s jury ranks the entries by the votes it received and gives 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 points to its favourites.

The televote

Like Eurovision today: every country has its own public vote and gives its own 12, 10, 8… to the others. A country never receives televote points from itself.

So the juries hand out 58 × 16 = 928 points and the televote the same: jury and public weigh the same.

Ties

If two entries end with the same points, these rules decide, in this order: more televote points, then points from more voters, then more votes in total.

The scoreboard show

The juries give their points one by one: first the small ones, then the 12 points with a big reveal, announced by each jury’s spokesperson.

Then the televote: entries are called from the lowest jury score to the highest, each receiving its whole televote at once. The last reveal is a duel between the leader and the last entry waiting.

The same votes can produce semi-finals and a final: the developers build them on the scoreboard (semi-finals with only their countries voting, a final where everybody votes, the Big 5 and the host qualified directly) and publish the videos.

Closing and results

Voting closes automatically when the countdown ends (17 Oct 2026, 23:59). The results, the animated scoreboard and the result cards are published here on 27 Oct 2026, 22:59. Then you will also see how your favourite did and where your votes went.
