This Vivace system verifies compliance with all Festival Bulletin rules at the time of registration.
Vivace reports are the official reports submitted to State and Regional Festival Chairs.

If you have not yet seen what Vivace can do, we recommend the overview video.
It will take about 10 minute of your time and is a great introduction.
