We need contestants. Preliminary qualifying contests are from August through December each year.

We need Hosts for these event. Hundreds will be required.

We need Karaoke businesses to participate as USA Hosts.

Qualify to host just a single local event, or a tournament, by volunteering to host an additional contest for KWCUSA.

Existing local competitions are especially encouraged to contact us immediately so that your event can be included in the World Championships competition run offs as an official event.

Are you the happening Karaoke Host in your area? Get your events sanctioned as part of this contest, and send the winners on the road to world karaoke domination, (and present them with a 'local winners certificate' to participate in the next level of competition.)

Details will be posted here as they unfold so bookmark this page and check back often.

Additional entry fees may be set and collected with the KWCUSA entry fee ($20) by the hosts.

We do not guarantee that they will be enough to fully cover the expense of a round trip ticket and accommodations to Finland for the winners, but we set them at an amount which will (hopefully) permit this as well as the offset the cost of competing in USA regionals.

We promise to keep the administrative costs to a maximum of 50% of the entry fees, with the other (minimum of) 50% being distributed to the contest participants. But we also guarantee that the Grand Prize for USA (1 male and 1 female) Finalist Winners will be given highest priority, and that if the entry fees are less than the anticipated cost of the prize, then we will simply award all of it as (2) cash prizes to offset the winners trips to Finland.

The contest is open to everyone of age to participat. If you sing, we will try to find an event for you to enter. Transportation will be up to the contestants, and the age limitations of the venues may prevent under age contestants from advancing until venues are found which permit them. (Ages 16-20 are advised that this may prevent their full participation as they may not have the chance to compete in the runoffs and finals due to local laws. Be advised that we will not refund entry fees based upon this limitation and that young singers who do find local venues in which they may compete will still be required to pay the full fee to the host to compete in a single event.)

Do you have a Karaoke Website? We need your help too!

You can participate in listing schedules for local competitions, or regional events and display pictures and bios of the winners.

We will list your site here (or provide a link to the listings from here) so the singers will easily find their local contest hosts and competitions (you.)
