The 2026 MICCA Gold Medal Showcase will be held on Sunday, April 12th at the Groton Hill Music Center in Groton, MA with performances running 10:00 AM-8:00 PM. If your group receives a gold medal, and you are ABLE to attend the Gold Medal Showcase, you must email me directly at by 8:00 P.M. on Thursday, April 2nd with the name of your group.

EVEN IF YOU INDICATED THAT YOU WERE AVAILABLE WHEN YOU SUBMITTED YOUR PROGRAM INFORMATION, YOU MUST COMPLETE THIS STEP.

In general, bands and orchestras will be scheduled in the morning/afternoon and choirs will be scheduled in the afternoon/early evening. If you have any time constraints that would preclude you from participating please note those in your email and I’ll do my best to accommodate them. A schedule will be sent out by 8:00 P.M. on Tuesday, April 7th.

If there are more groups who are available to perform than time slots available, a lottery will be held to select groups. If you receive a gold medal this year, AND your group received a gold medal in 2025, but you were notified that you were not selected in last year's lottery, you will receive priority in the scheduling process.
