Varsity Vocals' International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA) is the premiere tournament dedicated to showcasing the art of student a cappella singing and providing top-notch a cappella groups with valuable feedback from our highly qualified judges. Our young vocalists have the opportunity to share their talent with an international audience, develop relationships with each other, and cultivate the art of a cappella singing as well as a lifelong love of music. This competition is the inspiration behind the critically acclaimed films "Pitch Perfect," "Pitch Perfect 2," "Pitch Perfect 3," and the subject of the TV show, "Sing It On," produced by John Legend. The competition includes 400 collegiate groups across the world with over 50 events taking place each Spring. This event will include college a cappella groups from across Southern California who will be competing for the top two spots which move on to the West Semifinal. This is a family-friendly event, all ages welcome.
