Timetabling cannot commence until registrations have closed. We will notify competitors / teachers as soon as scheduling has been completed to be able to arrange accompanists and any necessary time off to attend the competition sections.

  • If you will be bringing an accompanist, please ensure they arrive by the start of the section / part. Instrumentalists are scheduled to go first so that your accompanists don’t have to wait around too long.
  • Please note that we do not give out the order of competitors in advance.

Entrants must arrive for registration as per the schedule.

  • Please remember to bring copies of the sheet music plus the AMCOS forms.

Sessions will begin promptly and the doors will be locked to avoid interruption. 

  • Anyone who has not registered at that time will not be able to compete.

Tickets to attend may be pre-purchased online. One chaperoning adult may attend for free; additional audience members incur a small cost. Programme booklets are also available to pre-order and collect on the day. We will email registrants once attendance tickets become available.

Please note:

  1. Where long sessions have been split into 2 or more parts:
    1. Performers may attend for both parts of their session or only the part that they are performing in. 
    2. Part allocations will be published online.
    3. We will send an email advising which section each performer will be in
    4. The adjudicator will not give reports or results until the end of the last part.
    5. If remaining for both sections, please bring refreshments for the meal break. Everyone will be required to leave the room during the break and return 10 minutes prior to the commencement of the next part.
  2. Where short sessions have been combined together, students will need to present for the first section and remain until the end of the final one.
