ABOUT GIC OPEN

A competition built for technical performers.

GIC OPEN 2027 is a virtual international colorguard competition created for Solo and Duo performers across Junior, Senior and Open age divisions.

Instead of evaluating a complete ensemble production, the competition focuses directly on two fundamental areas of performer development: Equipment and Movement.

Perform from your own location, submit one continuous recording and receive focused technical adjudication.

GIC OPEN 2027 is organised by Greenix Colorguard in collaboration with Green Phoenix Marching Band.
