Announcing Cafetalk's First "Online Music Competition" Public Jury Vote Sunday, June 21, 2020

Cafetalk is hosting its first ever "Online Music Competition"!

The competition will be available to watch for everyone together with a jury.

We decided to hold this competition not just as an opportunity for the performers to show their skills, but also a music celebration for all of the hardworking music lovers out there. But most importantly, we chose to hold the competition online to allow everyone to participate safely.

How does the online music competition work?

Competition participants will be asked to film their own performance and send the video to Cafetalk.

Participants' videos will be streamed all at once for public judging. A panel of judges made out of Cafetalk tutors will share their impressions in real time via comments. The winners will be announced after the competition.
