Faneuil Hall Marketplace Hits a High Note with its Annual A Capella Competition

Faneuil Hall Marketplace Merchants Association announced today that it will host its 17th annual Faneuil Hall A Cappella Competition on Saturday, October 19th and Sunday, October 20th from noon to 4 pm.  Twelve of the best A Cappella groups in New England from area colleges will come and battle it out in West End. Without instruments, the groups will sing for a panel of judges who will vote on the winners of three cash prizes.

 

“The Faneuil Hall A Cappella Competition is such a fun event and we are excited to bring it back this year,” said Carol Troxell, President of Faneuil Hall Merchants Association. “There’s a lot of school spirit behind these great groups who are coming and their fans will be out in full force to witness the competition.  Last year, Cornell University’s Men of Last Call took the title, so it will be exciting to see what these new groups bring to the table.”
