Malta will be hosting the June 2017 edition of the Eurovision Broadcasting Union, Eurovision Young Dancers.

Public Broadcasting Services will organise and broadcast in high definition this prestigious event to all European Countires.

Bonnici congratulated Anthea Zammit, who represented Malta in Pilsen, Czech Republic, where her performance was very well complemented by the international jury.
