Competition

Competition is a major and fun part of the barbershop world that helps keep us focused on raising the bar of performing excellence. We come together in a spirit of lighthearted contest, to see who's really got top form. We root for each other, cheer each other on, and once the medals have been handed out, we sing and party into the night!

Regional

Every year in April or May, Bismarck/Mandan Northern Lights Chorus makes the trip to compete in our regional contest. Dozens of choruses and quartets come together to sing and compete. There are a number of judging categories, and the groups bring complete and entertaining packages.  

International

Sometime in the fall the winners of all regional contests -- and a few "wildcards" -- gather together at International competition.  You can view the complete contest on a live webcast on the BHS website. This is the ultimate barbershop competition -- not to be missed!
