The Eurovision Young Musicians 2000 was the tenth edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians, held at Grieg Hall in Bergen, Norway, on 15 June 2000.

The Grieg Hall (Norwegian : Grieghallen), a 1,500-seat concert hall in Bergen, Norway, was the host venue for the 2000 edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians. [1] It has been the home of the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra since the hall's completion in 1978.[ citation needed ]
It hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 1986, and is the host of the annual Norwegian Brass Band Championship competition, which occurs in mid-winter. The hall is named after Bergen-born composer Edvard Grieg, who was music director of the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra from 1880 until 1882.[ citation needed ]
