Six competitors are selected by the adjudicators to compete in the Competition Final with results announced and prizes presented following the Sunday recital.
The International Piano Festival (WIPF) presents recitals from international concert pianists, piano masterclasses and workshops, as well as the National Junior Piano Competition (WNJPC), open to pre-tertiary students around New Zealand.
The Festival is aimed at young pianists and piano enthusiasts on a national level, a "camp-style" environment at The University of Auckland's, School of Music.
