Findlay First Edition (FFE) will host Findlay Fest Jan. 29 from 8 a.m.-11 p.m. in the auditorium.
Fourteen choirs from across Ohio and Indiana will compete, with the top six performing in the finals at 7 p.m.
"It's interesting to get to see what choirs from other schools are doing since there are no rules in show choir; you can sing whatever you want," director Kevin Manley said. "This year should be really competitive.
"There will be a lot of choirs with the same amount of ability, which will make the finals really fun because the crowd really gets into it when it's close."
As the host choir, FFE will not compete, but will perform a variety of music, including country, jazz, rock and other genres at 10:30 p.m.
"People should come to Findlay Fest because our show is going to be crazy good," sophomore Travis Essinger said. "We put long hours of work into our competition show and this is the one time out of the year that we get to show the students and community how amazing we are."
Tickets are $5 for students, $8 for adults and can be purchased at the door.
