15th City of Derry International Choir Festival

We look forward to welcoming choirs and audiences back to Derry in 2027. Programme and participation details coming soon!

The 14th City of Derry International Choir Festival took place from 22–25 October 2026, bringing together over 100 choirs, acclaimed artists and audiences from across the globe for four unforgettable days of music-making.

From a spectacular Opening Gala featuring Beethoven’s Christ on the Mount of Olives and Symphony No. 7 to breathtaking performances by Tenebrae and The Apex Singers, the prestigious International Competition and the Closing Gala & Awards Ceremony, the 2026 Festival was a wonderful celebration of choral music, community and international friendship.

Thank you to everyone who made the 14th edition such a memorable success. We look forward to welcoming you back from 21–24 October 2027!
