The Best of Open Mic Night rules are:
- Each performance will be 10-12 minutes long. The judges will consider the entire performance, not the individual song or verbal/musical piece performed.
- Judging will be based on the entertainment value of the act based on the audience's reaction and the opinions of each judge.
- Each of the three judges will provide a score from 1-100 for each act. At the end of the night, the scores will be tallied across the three judges to determine the act's overall ranking.
- Only one appearance for each performer will be considered for the Best of Open Mic Night judging. This does not preclude a group or individual from performing at multiple Open Mic Night events, however, only one performance will be scored.
- No act may be comprised of greater than 50% repeat performers. This will prevent the same group of people from being judged twice representing different acts, but will allow for performers to assist other musicians or speakers on stage.
- After the first year of the Best of Open Mic events, the winner of the previous year's event may not be considered for the Festival Stage performance.
- Any member of the Dallas Harvest Festival Steering Committee is ineligible.
