Concerts
As part of the Festival-Competition, the opening concert of the Festival and the closing concert of the Festival are held with an awards ceremony for participants.
Opening Concert:
All participants of the competition program and their accompanying persons can visit the concert free of charge. As a rule, members of the jury and well-known professional artists involved in the event perform in the opening concert.
Closing concert and awards ceremony:
Among all participants and groups, regardless of the score, the organizers of the competition will choose the brightest numbers to perform at the final concert of the competition (the choice of performances does not depend on the panel of judges, on the score, but only on the colorfulness of the number). All other participants attend the concert as spectators and go up to the stage for the awards ceremony. Participants selected to perform at the concert will be notified the evening before by telephone.
General staging performances
Members of the jury can choose individual participants or groups with which they will put together numbers with professional artists to perform in the Gala Concert of the Festival. Also, with a certain number of participants in each creative nomination, general rehearsals will be organized for staging performances at the Gala Concert. For example, a consolidated choir, consisting of all vocalists, or a general dance, where all dancers participate. For those who signed up for the competition program, these events are free.
