Applicants for the World Music Award “Crystal Note” are young vocalists and bands who already have a fan base, their own repertoire, and a clear artistic vision. Participants must be at least 18 and no older than 30 at the time of application submission.

Our contestants are not beginners learning their craft – they are emerging artists with the ambition to become beloved by millions.  For them, participating in the World Music Award Crystal Note International Competition Marathon is a chance to find their wider audience – or to determine if they are truly on the right path.

Contestants choose their own song repertoire, costumes, and stage image to present to the voting public. Any contestant who fails to appear at one of the concerts in a participating country without a valid reason will be disqualified.
