Winners/host City
The contest differs from the Eurovision Song contest in that the winning country does not automatically become host for the next contest. The Eurovision Dance Contest follows the same selection process as the Junior Eurovision Song Contest.

Or should our notion of daily life itself be transformed?”
—Edmund White (b. 1940)
