The First Rehearsals
In line with the tradition of the adult Eurovision Song Contest, the first rehearsals were closed to the press. As a result, no journalists were allowed to watch the rehearsal sessions, and there were no official rehearsal clips shared by RTVE. This means that, for now, there is no audiovisual footage available to fans, but the official social media channels of Junior Eurovision have shared a few photos offering a sneak peek behind the scenes.
