Talent Contest

Purpose

Central Florida is made up a community of thousands of people, each and every one diverse and unique. Asian Festival hopes to bring together these diverse elements for the first time in a celebration of music and dance in the spirit of unity. Asian Festival seeks to bring together various cultures from Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino, and Indian cultures and more. The performance categories will be split by age ranges.

The outcome of this project will be a more culturally conscious community, continuing to work towards ending injustices and to combat all forms of ignorance and prejudice, increasing understanding of the self-identity and community.

Competition Etiquette

Performers must display good sportsmanship throughout the event. Although this is a competition, the objective is to bring out the best in each of our performances and respective cultures.

Performers must arrive and check in with the event manager at least an hour before the beginning of show time. Performers must be ready back stage at two acts before their actual performance.

Additionally, all performers are responsible for securing their items during the event to prevent any lost.

Music / Audio Format

Bring all music in the form of mp3 or wma format for easier computer processing. Also, bring two copies of the files. Please label the file with your organization’s name.
