Eligible groups may participate in both Virtual Events and “in-person” events. Virtual Events are a great opportunity for additional performance and judge feedback for any group (especially groups that cannot afford to travel). (NOTE: Groups that fall under the 400 mile rule are now required to enter Virtual Prelims as a qualifier for World Championships. Virtual Events are NOT considered a qualifier for groups that do not fall under the 400 mile rule. Groups entered for the in-person WGI World Championships are not considered for assessment or advancement into the Virtual Finals events, the group will only receive commentary. 

Yes! Groups can enter the preview show and the prelim event with separate entry fees if they wish.
