General bases
Which are the phases of the contest? How does it work?
First of all, a registration period will open. When it ends, the first phase begins, during which participants must get a minimum of 30 votes by groups and 20 votes by DJs. Otherwise, the artist will be disqualified. Then, the second phase will begin, where the artists will compete for the maximum number of votes in order to automatically obtain a place in the Engresca't final, which will be held in early February.
Can I participate if I am under 16?
Contestants must be at least 16 years old. If you are 16 or 17 years old, you must contact us beforehand via mail:
How do you get to the end?
In the Engresca't final, 4 groups and 3 DJs participate. To get there you will have to pass the two previous phases. Phase 1 is exceeded by accumulating a number of votes greater than 30 for groups and 20 for DJs. Phase 2 will be passed only by the group and the DJ who have obtained the most votes. The three groups and the two remaining DJs will be chosen by the members of the TGK Cultural Association from among the remaining participants.
How many times can I vote per phase?
In each phase you have two votes, one for the DJs category and one for the groups category. You can change the vote of the same category, but then the previous one will not be valid.
How far can I upload the songs?
The songs must be uploaded following the regulations established in the bases before the registration phase ends. Once this phase is over, if they are not hanging, the group / DJ will not be able to participate.
What's the prize if you win the final?
The winners will be part of the Telecogresca 2026 poster. They will also have the opportunity to give a concert in the La Bàscula room in Barcelona during the 2026-2027 season. In addition, the winning group will have the opportunity to record an album in the Casafont recording studio. The winning DJ will take a course valued at 490€ from the DJ EUMES school. If the winner is a DJ duo, it will be a course for each member of the duo.
Who will judge the final?
There will be a jury for groups and another for DJs. These juries will be made up of external people from the world of music and a member of the association.
How many minutes do we play in the final?
The minutes of the final will be specified by the association once the finalists have been selected.
Why does my DJ/Group profile not appear once I have enrolled it?
In order for the registered profile to appear, we must validate it from the association. On the day that the voting phases are opened, if those responsible for the profile have filled in the necessary data, the profile will be validated. The profiles will appear as we validate them during the registration phase.
