Friday February 27th, 2026 * 6:30 PM

The next A Cappella & Unplugged Open Mic takes place at Trigger’s Table and Taproom in Waynesboro.

Additional open mics will continue through May.

Winners from each open mic will compete for a $500 grand prize and the opportunity to perform before thousands on July 18, just ahead of 1864: Ransoming, Burning & Rebirth of Chambersburg on July 18th.

The champion is chosen by the public through in-person ballots and a text-in voting option during the event.

Each year, regional talent shines at the open mics, semifinals, and finals.

From original compositions to standout interpretations of familiar songs, A Cappella & Unplugged showcases the creativity, skill, and expressive power of local performers.
