Prior to the 2021 contest, Ukraine had participated in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest fifteen times since its debut in 2006.[1] Ukraine never missed a contest since their debut appearance,[2] and won the contest once in 2012 with the song "Nebo", performed by Anastasiya Petryk.[3] The Ukrainian capital Kyiv has hosted the contest twice, at the Palace of Sports in 2009,[4] and the Palace "Ukraine" in 2013.[5] In the 2020 contest, Oleksandr Balabanov represented the country in Warsaw, Poland with the song the "Vidkryvai (Open Up)", placing 7th out of 12 entries with 106 points.

Olena Usenko
Olena Usenko (Ukrainian: Олена Усенко; born 18 June 2007),[15] sometimes known as Ellen Usenko or simply Ellen, is a Ukrainian singer and actress who will represent Ukraine in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021. She lives in Bila Tserkva and studies at the Katapulta Art Music School in Kyiv.[16][17]
She has already taken part in the national selection for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest before, coming second in 2020.[17]
Vazhil
"Vazhil" (Ukrainian: Важіль [ˈwɑʒilʲ] ) is a song by Ukrainian singer Olena Usenko. It will represent Ukraine at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021.
At Junior Eurovision
After the opening ceremony, which took place on 13 December 2021, it was announced that Ukraine will perform twelveth on 19 December 2021, following Albania and preceding France.[18]
Voting
The same voting system that was introduced in the 2017 edition will be used, where the results will be determined by 50% online voting and 50% jury voting.
The online voting consists of two phases. The first phase of the online voting began on 17 December 2021 when a recap of all the rehearsal performances is shown on junioreurovision.tv before the viewers can vote. After this, voters also have the option to watch longer one-minute clips from each participant's rehearsal. This first round of voting will end on Sunday 19 December at 15:59 CET. The second phase of the online voting will take place during the live show and begin right after the last performance and will be open for 15 minutes. International viewers will be able vote for a maximum of three songs.[19] They will also be able to vote for their own country's song. These votes will then be turned into points which will be determined by the percentage of votes received. For example, if a song received 20% of the votes, it received 20% of the available points.
