The Eurovision Young Dancers 2011 was the twelfth edition of the Eurovision Young Dancers, held at the Dance House in Oslo, Norway on 24 June 2011.[1] Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK), dancers from ten countries participated in the televised final. Croatia and Kosovo made their début while Germany and Portugal returned. Seven countries that took part in the previous edition decided not to participate.[1] This was the first edition to be successfully held since 2005, following cancellations in 2009 and 2007.

The event was aimed at young dancers aged between 15 and 21, competing in modern dances, be it solo or in couples, as long as they were not professionally engaged.[1] Daniel Sarr of Norway won the contest, with Petra Zupančić of Slovenia placing second (runner-up).[2]
