Your 2027 ICCA Lineup

The Road to Finals Starts Here!

The stage is set for the 31st season of the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella! Beginning this January, 400+ college groups with over 7,000 performers from across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom will bring their unique sound, styles, and energy to the stage for another unforgettable year. 

Behind every performance are months of rehearsals, creative arrangements, captivating choreography, and a shared love of making music together. This season is another chance to discover new talent, cheer on familiar faces, and see that hard work come to life on stage.

While we wish we could include everyone, we’re proud to welcome an extraordinary lineup of talented groups to this year’s tournament. Nine regions will once again make up the ICCA: Central, Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast, South, Southwest, West, and United Kingdom. Each region will follow our traditional Quarterfinal/Semifinal structure, all leading to the ICCA Finals this spring in New York City.
