Internal selection

It was originally announced on 5 August 2015 that Liza, Elen, Tako and Data will represent Georgia, however on 25 September 2015 it was revealed that they would perform as a group The Virus.[3]

Gabede
"Gabede" (English: Dare) is a song by the Georgian pop group "The Virus" and it will represent Georgia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2015 in Bulgaria.
At Junior Eurovision
At the running order draw which took place on 15 November 2015, Georgia were drawn to perform second on 21 November 2015, following Serbia preceding Slovenia.[5]
The final was broadcast in Georgia on GPB 1TV with commentary by Tuta Chkheidze. The Georgian spokesperson, who announced the Georgian votes during the final, was Lizi Pop (the representative for Georgia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2014).[6]
Final
Elen, Lizi, Data and Tako lined up as they appeared on stage and looked to the audience during their opening shot. The background was black with blue lines, stars and triangles.
At the end of the voting, Georgia placed 10th with 51 points.[2][7]
Voting
The voting during the final consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently. The individual rankings of each jury member were released one month after the final.
Following the release of the full split voting by the EBU after the conclusion of the competition, it was revealed that Georgia had placed 11th with the public televote and 11th with the jury vote. In the public vote, Georgia scored 41 points, while with the jury vote, Georgia scored 40 points.[8]
Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Georgia and awarded by Georgia in the final and the breakdown of the jury voting and televoting conducted during the final.
