National Final
On 7 April 2007, VGTRK announced that a national final would be held to select Russia' entry for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2007. A submission period for interested artists was opened and lasted until 8 May 2007. A professional jury selected twenty artists and songs from the applicants to proceed to the televised national final.
The selected artists and songs competed at the national final which took place on 3 June 2007 at the "Rossiya" concert hall in Moscow, hosted by Oksana Fedorova. The winner was determined exclusively by public televoting. The members of the backup jury were Nadezhda Babkina, Philipp Kirkorov, Grigory Gladkov, Yevgeny Krylatov and Larisa Rubalskaya.
