Merrick Festival 2022’s Caroling competition called Rejoice in the Voice will have 30 Miami-Dade and Broward County middle and high school student choirs vying for $20,000. For more than 35 years, the five-day competition has been held on the steps of the 550 Building, 550 Biltmore Way.
Six choirs will sing each evening. Middle school performances will be from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm Wednesday, November 30 and Friday, December 2. The high school performances will take place on Thursday, December 1 and Saturday, December 3 from 7:00 m to 10:00 pm, as well as Sunday December 4 from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Winners from each evening will return Tuesday, December 6th. Both the Junior Division and Senior Division will have five local music acclaimed judges.
