Ottawa's Virtual Talent Showcase will be set in a round robin format, with the finals consisting of the top 5 participants and the top 3 participants awarded with prizes.

Voting for the first round of entries will begin on March 8th, 2021 until March 14th, 2021 at 11:59pm.

Voting for the second round of entries will begin on March 16th until March 22nd at 11:59pm.

Voting for the final round of entries will begin on March 24th, 2021 until March 30th, 2021 at 11:59pm, with our finalists announced on Wednesday, April 1st, 2021.

Following the final round, we will be providing an opportunity for the top three finalists to perform live on our social media platform and at Rhythm Flo Culture Fest 2021 (Disclaimer – if provincial regulations do not allow for our festival to be held in 2021 due to the pandemic, your performance will take place at a later date.)

Voting will take place on our website www.rhythmmovements.ca for each round. The public will be determining our top three finalists, so it is up to our participants to share with others and encourage voters to vote for you!

Total votes for each round will be counted on www.rhythmmovements.ca at 11:59pm on the last day of each round and will be final as of that day, without further discussion.

Be creative, have fun and most of all be yourself and do your thing! Best of luck to all participants!
