In the Karaoke Competition, you can test your singing skills against each other on stage, and
this time you get to do it in teams of 2 or 3!
Karaoke is one of Japan’s most popular forms of
entertainment and relaxation, so the Karaoke Competition is limited to anime openings,
endings, video game or animated series’ tracks or other songs by Far-Eastern artists. You can
sign up for the contest in advance. The best team will win a prize, the second and third place
teams will receive a certificate and small gifts. The main goal is a great atmosphere, good music
and having fun on stage, as it is customary at karaoke!
Requirements and conditions
a) Registration for the competition is by pre-registration.
During the registration period, you must sign up and choose the song you want to sing.
Registration will be open from 19 May (Monday) to 27 June (Friday). You will be able to register
here on the Mondo website.
b) Your song must be by a Japanese or Korean artist, or the opening, ending or insert song of an
anime or game of Japanese origin. You can access the list of eligible songs here:
You can only choose a song for the tournament from this list. You will sing a full length song in
its original language.
You may NOT choose songs marked LQ, VO, Vocal, TV size, or from the list available on the free
karaoke.
You will receive an email from the organisers (either confirming your application or declining it
and asking you to choose a different song that fulfils the criteria), so it is very important that
you provide a real email address when you register and do not postpone registration until the
last day.
c) This competition consists of 1 round, in person at the convention
The minimum requirement for launching the competition is 5 applicants, and a maximum of 15
teams may participate. Entrees are accepted in the order of registration, over 15 applications
we will open a waitlist. You may move on from the waitlist to the competition only if an
accepted entrant withdraws OR if a team is disqualified due to no-show at the venue.
The round will take place in the karaoke room. The members of your team will need to sing
parts of the song both individually and together.
! The starting order is revealed before the competition at the venue. Anyone who does not
appear on stage after being called by the presenter will unfortunately be disqualified from the
competition.
Candidates may be disqualified for the following reasons:
- choosing a song with no karaoke/instrumental/off vocal version that’s approved by the
organisers; (hence the list) - choosing a non-Far-Eastern song.
Unfortunately, we are unable to accept any applications made through e-mail or after the
deadline.
If you have any questions or would like to request a song, please send an email to
versenyek@mondocon.hu.
The AdarnaKo team wishes you a healthy competitive spirit and good luck!
