We are Singing Rome

Rome, Italy

01 July - 04 July 2027

29 June - 01 July 2028

 

Rome – the Eternal City – is one of the world's most iconic cultural destinations. Home to remarkable architecture, ancient history and centuries of musical tradition, Rome offers choirs a truly unforgettable performance experience. From the grandeur of St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican to the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona, every corner of the city tells a story. Rome provides a spectacular backdrop for choirs seeking to combine music, culture and sightseeing.

The We Are Singing Rome Festival is a non-competitive international choral festival welcoming choirs of all ages and abilities from around the world. Choirs have the opportunity to perform in exceptional venues including the beautiful Chiostro di Campitelli at Teatro di Marcello and the Church of Santa Maria in Portico in Campitelli, while enjoying the unique atmosphere of one of Europe's most inspiring cities.

The festival combines performance opportunities, cultural exchange and sightseeing, making it ideal for choirs looking for a relaxed and rewarding international festival experience.

Choir Contact Ireland can help you plan an unforgettable choral trip for your choir. We take care of the planning, logistical arrangements, dealing with the ground operators and organisers, from start to finish, allowing you to focus on what matters most — the singing.
