The International Quartet Preliminary is open to all quartets. During this event, we will qualify quartets for the International Quartet Contest held in Denver, Colorado.

We will award Quartet and Chorus champions in each division, as well as Novice and Senior Quartet champions and Plateau A/AA/AAA Chorus champions. Youth and Super Seniors Quartets are welcome to compete at this event, but awards will not be given until all five FWD division contests are completed. Additionally, this event will be utilized to qualify quartets and choruses for the upcoming Fall District contests in October.

We always welcome organizations who want to perform but are not participating in the contest. Our audiences are the greatest in the business, and our judges are dedicated to assisting each group in reaching its objectives. Please join us at the event that is most convenient for you; we look forward to seeing you!
