Armenia’s Naré won Junior Eurovision 2026 with “BOO!”, the European Broadcasting Union announced after the final in Ta’ Qali, Malta. The 13-year-old singer scored 202 points in the contest held on 24 October.
Spain’s Lucas Paulano finished second with 184 points and France’s Alec third with 165. Sixteen broadcasters participated in the event, staged by Malta’s PBS. The result gives Armenia its third win, following victories in 2010 and 2021.
The organiser’s release is dated early 25 October, separate from the performance date. It also notes that winning Junior Eurovision does not automatically oblige the broadcaster to host the following year’s contest.
