Telefest Updates

Due to the impact of Hurricane Sandy on our sponsors, server outages and issues with online submissions through WithoutABox.Com, Telefest is experiencing delays in preparing our site for online Viewer Voting. While at this point we do not expect this to affect the venue, there may be a slight delay in venue dates also.

If you are a contestant that has tried to submit and have not had confirmation on your submission, please re-submit through snail mail. If you are a student or have otherwise been granted a submission waiver, please contact us at Here to inquire into extended deadlines.

We apologize to all those that are affected by the delay. Our goal is to deliver the best online and live venue possible and to this end, we are working very hard to resolve any and all issues.

Thank you,

The Telefest Staff
