As Texas has no mask or vaccine mandates at this time, neither will Region 10 for the 2023 contest. The same is true for the Hilton Hotel. We have, however, put some policies into place to add a level of safety to the contest weekend.

Additional Information for 2023:

1)  Masking and/or distancing is perfectly admissible both on the stage and in all areas.

2)  Hand sanitizer will be placed in highly travelled areas.

3)  Audience seating will be spaced out more than we’ve had before.

4)  9 sets of risers will be provided so singers can space out in chorus performances.

5)  Chorus rehearsals will be scheduled with 30 minutes in between each choruses in the same room.

6)  Region 10 is working with the hotel to ensure all 6 elevators are in use for our 2 days of competition.  In addition, we have been given permission for our less mobile members to use the service elevator.

7)  A Regional Afterglow has been scheduled for Saturday night after the Show of Champions in the Donatello Room on the 2nd floor.  You are allowed to bring in a personal snack and a cash bar will be available right outside.

8)  Region 10 is working with the hotel to ensure enough staff is available in the restaurant and at Starbucks during our peak times.
