A competition for individual young musicians - in two categories - instumentalist and vocalist.
The initial round is run by the local Rotary club. The winner(s) progress to District, then Region, and then RGBI (National).
Competition rules and guidance can be found on the RGBI website. Rotarians will need to log in to obtain the formal entry forms, which MUST be used at all stages of the competition.
For 2020/21 it turned out to be impossible to run the competition due to the coronavirus pandemic. A scaled-down District competition was held on Saturday 12th February 2022, but there is no Regional or National final. Results from the District final will be posted here once advised by the organiser.
Competition dates for each year will be posted here when known, but as a guide, club rounds will need to be held by mid January, with District February/March, Regional in March/April, and RGBI in May.
