What is a masterclass and how do I sign up?

A ‘masterclass’ is a session in which your group works privately with a SoJam instructor or instructors: a chance to receive real-time, really constructive criticism from a cappella’s best and brightest! Masterclasses will be available all weekend during class times (Saturday 9:00-5:00, Sunday 10:00-12:00). If you’d like to sign your group up for a masterclass, you can do so here. Please email Ben Stevens if you have additional questions.

Can I apply the CASA Membership discount to my whole group?

No, only individual tickets or passes are available to purchase using the CASA Membership discount. If you have some members of your group who are paid CASA members and would like to receive the discount, they can purchase their tickets individually on the CASA website. Make sure they indicate that they are part of your group, and we will have all of your group’s materials together for pick up at registration. Be sure to complete the group registration through the Tickets page on the SoJam website, and simply omit the group members who will be registering individually.

I am now unable to attend. How do I get a refund?

Before purchasing tickets, carefully review your selection.

Regretfully, if you elect to make changes to your plans, tickets cannot be cancelled, exchanged or refunded unless the event has been cancelled or postponed.
