Touring Choirs – 2022 Package

2023 Touring Choir Packages available late 2022

For Community Choirs large and small, we bring you the ultimate winter choral experience! 

Vocal ensembles and choirs from across the country travel to Tasmania every year to perform and connect at our festival. 

Our  Touring Choirs – 2022 Package offers choir members the unique opportunity to sing at some of Tasmania’s most renowned locations. From art galleries to historic sites, this package is the ultimate way to ‘discover Tasmania’ whilst singing for audiences of all sizes! 

Choir members who register will get to enjoy a range of experiences that remain at the heart of the festival: 

Package Perks 

Choirs in the Community Pop-Up Program  

Surprise and delight audiences around Hobart and in unique locations across the city. Choirs are invited to perform to guests and passers-by in a creatively  curated program. 

 The Festival Singers’ Lounge 

Singers who register for Touring Choirs – 2022 Package will have the opportunity to perform at the Singers’ Lounge. You also get free entry, subject to availability and current capacity limitations. 

Often described as the heart and soul of Festival of Voices, we think it’s our best kept secret!  Friends – old and new – revel in the glory of scheduled and impromptu performances (sometimes until the wee hours). Audiences are treated to spontaneous song by some of our big-name performers who in turn have been known to encourage anxious altos and timid tenors overcome any performing fears to bask in the safe and welcoming arms of our audience. It’s always bustling and really is the ultimate Singers Love-In!   

Choir leaders – please check information below, as Choirs in the Community and Singers’ Lounge perks requires extra registration**

Join in the fun of a choral flash mob in a prominent Hobart location, mid-morning on Saturday 9 July. Music and learning tracks will be provided in the lead-up.
