Major Changes to the 2020 South Pacific and New Zealand Accordion Championships - New Zealandby Heather Masefield Secretary, New Zealand Accordion Association |
 |
 The NZAA has announced major changes to the 2020 South Pacific and New Zealand Accordion Championships for Saturday 30 May 2020. The event will not be a public event due to the Covid-19 situation and the number of categories has been reduced to the major South Pacific Accordion Championship categories. The NZ World Accordion Day Concert has also been changed and will now be a video concert without audience. For the South Pacific Championships, the NZAA has booked a small hall, Rose Centre, Devonport, where contestants only will perform without audience, to a small jury. Additionally, the NZAA has also made provision to run these classes digitally by contestants using their phone to video from home if use of the hall is prevented by New Zealand Government Covid-19 regulation. With these plans in place, the competitions will definitely be taking place for these categories and the message by the NZAA to potential entrants is "Keep Practising" as there is definitely going to be a competition. This might be a template for other accordion associations to follow at this difficult time. |
