world karaoke championship 2008
The world`s best karaoke-performers since 2003!
Karaoke on the world championship level differs greatly from the general pub karaoke known to all. The talent shown by the top singers can easily be compared to the world's greatest performers. The sixth annual KWC event, which stands for Karaoke World Championships, will be produced in collaboration with KWC Organization, Eastway and Lahden Messut. KWC has achieved fame as the world's largest and most prestigious karaoke event in the world, gathering music lovers all in one place. This year's championships will combine participants from twenty different countries or more. In 2007, KWC was held in the tropical atmosphere of Bangkok, Thailand. For the next three years, 2008-2010, the event will be held in Lahti, Finland.
Energetic and varied performances!
Over the years, the Karaoke World Championships has offered performances ranging from energetic rock lyrics through to heart-breaking ballads. Because of the wide and varied scale of performances, one thing is guaranteed when it comes to the Karaoke World Championships - it only gets better every year!
