ABOUT

The World Choir Games, the biggest choral competition and festival on the globe, came to Aotearoa for the first time ever from 10 to 20 July. It was by far the largest choral event to be held in this country.

More than 11,000 singers from over 42 countries arrived in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland to compete, to enjoy workshops, ceremonies and evening concerts in the city, and to give free daytime concerts throughout Tāmaki Makaurau.

The participating choirs brought a huge variety of musical styles from every region of the world, providing audiences with a two-week feast for both the eyes and the ears!

Organised by INTERKULTUR, the World Choir Games 2024 was hosted by the New Zealand Choral Federation, delivered by Chor 2024 Limited and supported by New Zealand Major Events and Tātaki Auckland Unlimited, Auckland’s cultural and economic agency.
