The Eurovision Young Dancers 1995 was the sixth edition of the Eurovision Young Dancers, held at the Palais de Beaulieu in Lausanne, Switzerland on 6 June 1995. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG SSR), dancers from nine countries participated in the televised final. A total of fifteen countries took part in the competition. Hungary and Russia made their début while Denmark and Estonia withdrew. However, the Danish broadcaster DR broadcast the event as did Bulgaria and Romania.
The semifinal took place days 3 before the final (3 June 1995). Like in the previous contests, each country could participate with one or two dancers, male or female, not older than 19, that could perform one or two different dances: either a 2 variations (individual) no longer than 5 minutes each or a "pas de deux" (couples) no longer than 10 minutes.
The disqualified countries were, Cyprus, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Norway and Slovenia. Spain, with Jesús Pastor Sahuquillo and Ruth Miró Salvador, won the contest for 4th time (3rd in a row) with Sweden and Belgium placing second and third respectively.
Palais de Beaulieu, a convention centre in Lausanne, Switzerland, was the host venue for the 1995 edition of the Eurovision Young Dancers.
