ate performs at local and charity events and in various choral festival competitions. Successes include wins in the Lynch Perpetual trophy, Féile an tSamhraidh and 1st placed Mixed Voice Choir at the AIMS Choral Festival in 2018. Cantate travelled to Amsterdam in 2019 and later that year, staged a concert in St. Lukes with Koor rooK, a dutch choir that they met in Amsterdam. In 2020 during lock-down, Cantate created a virtual video with Koor rooK of an Irish Blessing which was widely viewed on YouTube. Cantate also participated in the International Choral Competition in Derry, Northern Ireland in 2023. Cantate is looking forward to a busy schedule of events for 2025 and beyond.
