The Eurovision Young Dancers 1993 was the fifth edition of the Eurovision Young Dancers, held at the Dance House in Stockholm, Sweden, on 15 June 1993. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT), dancers from eight countries participated in the televised final. A total of fifteen countries took part in the competition. Estonia, Greece, Poland and Slovenia made their début with Austria returning, while Bulgaria, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal deciding not to participate, and Yugoslavia being banned from entering the contest.

As in 1989 and 1991, a semi-final was held to choose the finalists. The semi-final took place 2 days before the final (13 June 1993). The jury chose the finalists and top 3 performances. The prizes were presented by Princess Christina, the youngest sister of Carl XVI Gustaf, King of Sweden.

The non-qualified countries were Belgium, Cyprus, Finland, Italy, Norway, Portugal and Slovenia. Zenaida Yanowsky of Spain won the contest, with Switzerland and Austria and France placing second and joint third respectively.
