The Michiana Metro Lighthouse Chorus is preparing to compete in the 2026 Pioneer District Convention to be held on April 24-26, 2026, in Livonia, Michigan.  The Convention is an annual (spring and fall) barbershop harmony competition and features choruses and quartets from Michigan and Southwestern Ontario. Choruses and quartets gather for fun, singing and competition.  It is also an opportunity to observe other choruses and learn how to improve our Chorus performance through the help of coaches.  Events include the District Chorus Championship, District Quartet Championship, Senior District Quartet/Chorus Championships and Youth Quartet contests.  In addition, the weekend convention features educational workshops, meetings and a “Harmony Marketplace”. The Pioneer District has been active since 1940, with a rich history of promoting four-part harmony across Michigan.
