Trivia[]

Songs[]

There was a change in the songs' lyrics from season 1 to season 2. Lyrics on same songs from season 1 are different in seasons 2 and 3.
The original Spanish theme song 'En Mi Mundo' sung by Tini Stoessel was not used for the English dub. Instead, an English adaptation made in Argentina, titled 'In My Own World' and sung by Stoessel was used, even when in season 1 that song was translated with different lyrics under the title 'This Is My World' and was sung by Maggie McClure. From season 2 and on, the 'In My Own World' adaptation was always used whenever the characters sang the song.
The English dub audio of the songs was reused in the Danish, Swedish and Norwegian dubs of the series. All other non-English-language dubs of the series reuse the original Spanish audio for the songs.
Clara Rugaard-Larsen, who's dubbing Violetta's singing voice in seasons 2-3, is also singing the Danish version of the theme song, called "Verden ligger åben nu". The digital release of the song includes her singing the song in Danish, and her version for "In My Own World" in English.

Season 2[]

In Season 2, some songs are sung in English in the original version for some particular episodes. For the English version, these songs were sung in French.
American Disney Channel star Bridgit Mendler did a guest appearance in Season 2. Her dialogues in English were not dubbed and left intact.
