About the inscenation
On October 22, 2025, the voices of the most talented young singers from across Europe will resound through Prague’s Hybernia Theater. The finals of the Bon Art Junior Fest international singing competition will feature not only extraordinary performances by children and teenagers aged 10 to 16, but also by guests from our music scene.
Six talented singers from the Czech Republic made it to the finals: Adriana Pánková (13 years old), Karolína Veselá (13 years old), Ela Řehořková (12 years old), Mia Dvořáková (10 years old), Valentina Vozňuk (11 years old), and Anna Vondráčková (15 years old).
The international finalists include Oliva Arriana Fabiola (16, Italy), Laura Zawadka (14, Poland), Tomáš Novák (13, Slovakia), Tigran Hunanyan (12, Armenia), Anelisse Mănescu (10, Romania), and Natalia Sara Tirnoveanu (11, Romania).
At the final gala evening, each participant will perform a solo song, and there will also be joint performances, all accompanied by the Bon Art Pops Orchestra conducted by Felix Slováček Jr.
The winner of the competition will receive a cash prize of €4,000, which will be decided by a jury of experts composed of prominent figures from the Czech and international music scene. This year, the jury will include Richard Liegert (artistic director of the competition), singer Lenny, Michaela Anna Dobrovolná (director of the Kühn Children’s Choir), Japanese conductor Chuhei Iwasaki, Marta Jandová, Bára Basiková, singer Annamária d’Almeida, Terezie Kovalová (cellist, singer, composer), Miloslav Zíka (Marketing & Sales Director, Universal Music), Jan Steinsdörfer (composer, producer, music director, dramaturge, and member of the band Chinaski), and the band Vesna—the international composition of Vesna, led by Patricia Kaňok Fuxová, underscores the main idea of the festival: connecting cultures across Europe.
Tereza Tobiášová and Jan Maxián will host the entire evening. Tereza is an experienced presenter who, thanks to her previous work in music television, has a close connection to music and the younger generation. Jan Maxián, singer, actor, and presenter, combines natural humor with a sensitivity for musical performances. Both will bring professionalism and a friendly atmosphere to the evening, which will support the young contestants.
“The festival provides young singers with a great opportunity to perform in front of a real audience, which is not always an easy test. In addition, they have the chance to showcase their talent in front of a jury of professionals. For many talented individuals, this can be an amazing springboard to further future success,” says singer Lenny, who will be sitting on the jury for the umpteenth time.
Last year’s winner Viktorie Molcarová also recalls her success in the competition: “I really enjoyed Bon Art Junior Fest, it was great, fun, but also quite demanding – but it was never boring. Participating and winning brought me a lot of experiences, friends, and opportunities. I got to sing with the band Crossband at Lucerna, at Dermacol Love Day, and show myself to more people. The competition also gave me a lot of new experiences in music. I would definitely recommend it, you will enjoy it a lot, learn a lot of new things, and get the chance to show yourself.”
Come enjoy the final gala evening and support young talents from all corners of the world.
