Grand Award, 1st place, and 2nd place winners are eligible to perform in our winners' concerts.
Starting this year, we will announce the top winners of each age group with the music teacher's name.
Selected Grand Award and 1st place winners may receive cash prizes that will be distributed in the winners' concerts.
Certificates and other awards will also be distributed in the winners' concerts.
3rd place winners are not eligible to perform in the winners' concerts at this time but will receive digital certificates in the month of June,2024.
