Tickets for the eagerly anticipated World Choir Games 2024, taking place in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland from 10 to 20 July, is live now! Over 11,000 participants will descend upon the city, with around 250 choirs from more than 30 countries now registered to perform.

New Zealand is renowned for its manaakitanga, its warm welcome and hospitality that will be a hallmark of the 13th World Choir Games.

The event comprises a global competition with numerous categories, a wide range of concerts, ceremonies and workshops – all in the central city – and free-to-attend daytime events right across Tāmaki Makaurau.

The philosophy behind the World Choir Games is to unify people and nations in fair competition through song. It is based on the premise that music, the common language of the world, can act as a bridge between countries and cultures. To inspire people to experience the power of singing together, the Games places personality and team spirit over competitive outcomes.

Alongside the competition, which runs throughout the day, curated evening concerts will feature a veritable feast of choral music from many parts of the world.

We are a singing nation, with a thriving choir culture in every town and city. Our musical traditions reflect the rich diversity of the multicultural population and are woven through the fabric of New Zealand’s largest city, Auckland.

Join in at the World Choir Games 2024 and receive a warm welcome and an unforgettable cultural experience! In the spirit of manaakitanga you will be made to feel part of the New Zealand whānau – its family!
