This unique opportunity to showcase talent and be discovered comes with a chance to win over $500,000 in scholarships, cash awards and prizes.
Sri Lanka's talent scene is already making waves. At WCOPA 2026, Natharie Wickramasinghe won a Bronze Medal in the Ethnic/Folklore Dance category, representing Team Sri Lanka. Lakisha Bernard, a 22-year-old freelance model and fashion design graduate, is set to represent Team Sri Lanka at the upcoming WCOPA 2027. Originally from Colombo but now based in Canada, Lakisha will act as the Team Sri Lanka Promoter for Canada, bringing her unique blend of high-fashion sensibility, captivating camera presence and expert garment design to the international stage.
The competition, organized by a system of scouts and licensed National Directors, hires Chris Rajendra as the National Director for Team Sri Lanka. Interested individuals in singing, dancing, acting, modeling or instrumental arts can contact Chris Rajendra to register for this prestigious event.
