Virtual Solo Competition

​2020 has been extraordinary year for everyone.  For sure, there has been lots of worry, but there has also been reason to smile. We’ve seen how you have shared messages of encouragement and support during lockdown and were really touched that you asked about the GBDO as soon as school reopening was announced. As a result, we have thought hard about how to safely make it happen for you this year, and this is the result.
Whilst we may have to wait a while longer to get together again, we’d love to kick off the GBDO year with a virtual competition and hope that by the Spring we can offer you some live heats and a Grand Final.
If you would like to take part this Autumn, we are opening registration to solo competitors only.  Most of the same rules will apply and our judging panel will view and critique your filmed work on screen.  Winners will be announced by Christmas 2020 and also be invited to perform at their nearest regional heat later in Spring when our group competitions will be held.
