The Noblesville High School (NHS) Choral Department is excited to play host for NHS’s second Indiana Show Choir Championships on Saturday, March 22, at the high school, 18111 Cumberland Road.

The community can join these choirs for an exciting day celebrating the excellence of high school show choir in the state that started it all.

NHS choir directors John Neubauer and Julianne Fowler are excited to bring this Championship to the high school where 18 choirs from nine schools will compete all day long with awards in the evening. Plus, three NHS show choirs will perform exhibition shows at various times throughout the day, which runs from 7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Awards will be at 2:10 p.m. and 10:40 p.m.

“It is wonderful for the choir community in Noblesville to host this event gathering great choirs from all over the state,” Neubauer said. “We share our hospitality and show them the community and class that encompasses the musical community in Noblesville.”

NHS expects more than 800 high school students, plus an additional more than 1,500 adults from around Indiana and the Indianapolis area to attend. A lot of show choir singers who still live in the area and folks in the community who are interested in watching these show choirs are expected to attend. The show choir event is open to the public.

There will be a pancakes and sausage breakfast made by Noblesville Kiwanis Sunrisers and served up by NHS choir volunteers. Food will be available all day for guests to the event.

Descending upon NHS will be small univoice, large univoice, small mixed, and large mixed show choirs that hail from Anderson Prep High School, Ben Davis High School, Bishop Luers High School, Brownsburg High School, Carroll High School, Franklin Community, New Castle High School, Northridge High School, and Warren Central High School.
