There were so many different, exciting acts ranging from magic, dance, singing, freestyle rap to a cappella including the UBC Thunderbird Dance Team (TDT) shown above. The show was kicked off by a rousing magic and illusionist act from Pauline Kong.

Singer Frankie Cena swooned us with his sultry voice.

My favourite act was probably Class Act, an awesome freestyle and beatbox rap trio that wowed us with their non-assuming, quick rhymes and delivery.

My fellow judges and I had a very difficult time ranking and deciding what acts were the best, because of all the talent displayed. It was very hard to compare such different forms of performance as well.

The Rachel Thom Band came from Whistler to perform their bundle of original songs.

I really enjoyed Amie Yoshitake and Carlo Enage's crazy rendition of Gorillaz's "Feel Good Inc.", especially Carlo's maniacal cackle.

The X Guys were a crowd favourite with their a cappella stylings acting as a great show ender.

Congratulations to the grand prize winners Fred Nguyen and Michael Yap for their amazing Celtic dance that mesmerized the crowd. They received $500 and a trip to California.

The CVC events department, especially department head Joanna Yang, did a great job organizing and executing the event. The show was seamless and featured a variety of performance acts well spaced throughout the evening.
