I have entered but not yet received details for the day of competition
- In the first instance please do a search in your emails using terms such as: ‘NYMY’; ‘nymusicianmanagement’; ‘nymusician’. Also check in your junk mail. If there is nothing there, and it is more than two weeks before the day of the competition then it may be that the details have not yet been sent. Note that the details are dependent on the number of entrants in each class and age group and cannot be determined until we close the entries.
- If the competition day is approaching and the aforementioned search was not successful then please email us at enquiry@nymusician.org.uk
