International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella - History

History

Founded in 1996 by Adam Farb and Deke Sharon, the ICCA tournament takes place from January through April in six regions: West, Midwest, South, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and Europe.

The ICCA has been presented by Varsity Vocals since 1999, when it was purchased by Don Gooding (a cappella.com, Contemporary A Cappella Publishing).

In 2005, the success of the ICCA produced a spin-off competition, the International Championship of High School A Cappella (ICHSA).
