ENTRY HAS NOW CLOSED.

Once a section is full, bands will be placed on a first-come first-serve reserve list - regardless of their section. An increase of 5 additional spaces was given to the contest on 21st November 2024. The Rules and Regulations form can be found below with the Entry Form just underneath. Both of these documents must be signed and emailed to constestopen@gmail.com, with clear intention of paying the entry fee in one of the methods given.
