The World Choir Games 2026 is scheduled for 6 - 16 August.
In August 2026, Sweden will host the world’s largest international choir competition: The World Choir Games are coming to Helsingborg! This picturesque coastal city enchants with its musical diversity, vibrant cultural heritage, and the welcoming spirit of Scandinavia. Here, the global choral community meets Nordic hospitality.
The World Choir Games 2026 offer the right format for every choir: The Open Competition is designed for choirs with little or no competition experience. The Champions Competition gives seasoned ensembles the opportunity to compete at the highest level with the world's top choirs.
Beyond the competition, the event is a true festival of encounters: at Friendship Concerts across Helsingborg and the surrounding region, diverse cultures and musical styles come together. The program is complemented by workshops, educational activities, and plenty of opportunities for international exchange.
Whether your focus is on ambitious competition or inspiring community – every choir is welcome at the World Choir Games 2026. Look forward to an event that uniquely brings together diversity, excellence, and connection. HelSINGborg 2026 will be the meeting place of the international choral world – with your voice at the heart of it!
