Get a team together to master the art of public speaking presenting on a topic of your choice
Share your gift of song or mastery of a musical instrument in Rotary’s Young Musician competition.
Participants will get the chance to experience performing on a public stage as they showcase their musical talent and receive feedback from experienced adjudicators.
You will perform in a local heat first before going, if selected onto a district final, a cluster final and then onto the national final on Saturday 25th April 2026 (venue TBC).
Entrants can be either a solo vocalist or solo instrumentalist and the competition is open to young musicians up to the age of 17 (as of 31st August 2025).
Download the 2025/26 competition Information Pack and Poster and contact your local Rotary club for details on the local heats.
