The
27th Annual Colgate Country Showdown is designed to
find the most promising country music talent in America
and to give these performers a chance to launch their
professional music careers.
The Colgate Country Showdown begins each Spring with
over 450 local talent contests sponsored by country
music radio stations throughout the US. Winners advance
to their respective State competitions held at leading
fairs and expositions. Acts then compete for a $1,000
prize, the State Title and the opportunity to advance
to one of five Regional Finals. It’s the last
step before the prestigious National Final, which
is televised to a national audience from country music’s
most exciting venues, like the stage of the Grand
Ole Opry House, the Grand Palace Theatre in Branson,
the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Epcot
Center at Walt DisneyWorld, and Universal Studio Florida.
Audiences from coast-to-coast cheer on the Regional
Winners, as they compete for the Grand Prize of $100,000
and the National Title. A uniform
judging system is used at all levels of competition
to ensure fairness.
