Thirty-six countries will participate in the contest, with Bosnia and Herzegovina and Cuba participating for the first time. It was announced that Belgium, Ireland and Russia would not be taking part due to various reasons.

Location

After the victory in the previous edition in Hanoi, Vietnam at the 8th edition, Israel has received the rights to host the contest.
