~ AC&C 2026 ~

Tag Contest

For the first time at Area 2 AC&C we will be hosting a TAG CONTEST on Thursday night at 9:30 p.m. Tag Contests were successfully held at Harmony Fest West 2025 and IC&C 2025, and we'd like to start a new tradition in Area 2.

So, start thinking about organizing a quartet and picking a tag. Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 quartets.

Quartets can pre-register by contacting our Tag Contest Coordinator, David Patterson at tagcontest@area2harmony.org.

Eligibility:
  • All Harmony, Inc. members, including Associate and Affiliate members, are eligible.
  • Registered quartets are not eligible.  No more than two members of a registered quartet may be part of a quartet competing in the Tag Contest.
  • A person may sing in more than one quartet.
General:
  • Each participating quartet must have a name.
  • A quartet, if they choose to do so, may sing their tag over again.  If they choose to do a “do over,” the second performance will be the one which is scored.
  • Keep in mind…  “performance” and “apparel” could influence your scores.
  • To rehearse your tag, you are encouraged to form your “Tag Quartet” before AC&C and register for the contest before arriving.  This also provides an opportunity to coordinate your apparel and rehearse your performance plan (if you choose to do so).
  • Once the session has started, there can be no rehearsing within earshot of the Tag Contest site (Sovereign Room).
  • There will be prizes for the top three quartets.
Registration:
  • Quartets may enter the contest at any time before the beginning of the contest session. 
  • When registering, please provide the quartet’s name, what chapters are represented, and the names of four individuals in the quartet.
  • Quartets can pre-register by email at tagcontest@area2harmony.org.
  • Quartets can register in the Airport Lounge (Hospitality Room).  Look for the registration sheet when you pick up your All-Events Pass.
  • Quartets can register with a hand-written card, given to the Tag Contest Organizers, David Patterson or Jordan Kugler before the event.
Judges:
  • Stacy Hugman, Gaye LaCasce
