How A Cappella & Unplugged Open Mic Works: The winner of each open mic is guaranteed a slot in the Round one performance, onstage at the Capitol Theatre in June. The date is to be determined. Up to 20 acts (auditions from open mic nights, 4 individuals chosen from each event) are invited to Round One at the Capitol Theatre in June. A panel of judges selects the top six acts to move into the Semi-Finals along with a people's choice. The chosen finalists will perform at the Court House Plaza in Downtown Chambersburg. Then, the public is invited to vote on the finalists for a winner! The Final Round winner will perform during the 1864 Burning of Chambersburg on July 19th, 2024, where one act wins the $500 grand prize.
