EVENT POSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19

With COVID-19 we are faced with international judges traveling restrictions, delay in opening of theatres and crowd restrictions. Our competition is really trying to uphold very high standards therefore we feel that an on-line final round won’t do justice to the competition and the participants. On stage performance is very important and forms part of the talent development.

We acknowledge that many of our committed performers and parents will be disappointed with the cancellation but know that the organisers and masterclass panel is committed to ensuring a spectacular competition experience for everyone at next year’s event.

We’re very excited to confirm that all national and international masterclass panel members are finalized for the 2021 festival and are very excited to attend.

All entries will be carried over to next year’s competition or will be refunded.

Further information will be made available in due course and we will be in direct communication with everyone that has entered thus far.

Entry deadline: 30 June 2021

Next Year’s competition dates: 22 – 26 September 2021
