The annual ACL Performers’ Showcase offers the opportunity to meet and evaluate a variety of children’s performers active in the Bay Area. The 37th Performers’ Showcase was held on 7th February 2026.
The next Showcase will be held on Saturday, 6th February 2027, from 9 am to 4:30 pm at the Fremont Main Library. Applications for the 2027 Showcase will open 6th September 2026 and the deadline for performer applications is 15th October 2026.
Performers are eligible to appear in the Showcase if they have not participated in the last 3 years. This gives a larger number of performers a chance to participate in the Showcase, and it gives our audience a different group of performers to enjoy every year. If you last performed in 2023 or earlier, you are eligible to appear again in the Showcase in 2027.
Our Showcase FAQ has more information about the day of the Showcase, so please peruse that document if you have any questions. If the FAQ does not answer your question about the Showcase, please email us at [email protected]
We look forward to seeing you at the next Showcase!
