The Eurovision Young Dancers 2005 was the eleventh edition of the Eurovision Young Dancers, held at the National Theatre in Warsaw, Poland, on 24 June 2005. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Telewizja Polska (TVP), dancers from ten countries participated in the televised final. A total of thirteen countries took part in the competition. For this contest, a week of dance master classes replaced the semi-final round in order to select the finalists. Armenia, Estonia, Switzerland and Ukraine decided not to participate.

The non-qualified countries were Cyprus, Norway and Slovenia. Milou Nuyens of Netherlands won the contest, with host country Poland and Belgium placing second and third respectively. The next edition would eventually be held in 2011, following cancellations in 2007 and 2009.
