Information about the Prague Autumn Choral Meeting
We are happy to invite your choir to the ancient city of Prague in the heart of Europe where the traditional Prague Autumn Choral Meeting will be taking place on the following weekend:
Prague Autumn Choral Meeting November 08 - 10, 2024
Our choral meetings are open to choral groups with min. 14 singers of all ages and all kinds (mixed, male, women, children, barbershop, gospel, church choir, gregorian music, instrumental vokal ensemble, …) from all over the world – as their name reveals, it is not a stressfull contest but a unique opportunity to meet other choirs from different countries, sing together and make new friends in the magic atmosphere of the beautiful Old Town of Prague. You will also be able to see all historical monuments of our capital – learn about Czech history, traditions as well as contemporary life. Prague is famous for its rich musical traditions and cultural life – it is a city of the musical greats such as Dvorak, Smetana as well as Mozart who loved Prague.
Prague Autumn Choral Meetings is the most popular and best attended choral event in Prague during autumn – in previous editions we welcomed more than 140 choirs from 16 different countries.
Most participating choirs come to the festival on Thursday and leave on Sunday, but is is also possible to arrive on Friday. Depending on the lenght of stay and your wish, you would have two or one public perfomance of 30 minutes in churches in the Old Town – all concerts are open to the public and free of charge. As a rule, the concerts are held at the majestic St. Nicolas Church at the Old Town Square (built in the years 1732-1737) and St. Salvator Church (built in the years 1611-1614) or a similar church in the Old Town of Prague.
On Saturday morning all participating choirs gather at a concert hall or church for a friendship concert – highlight of the festival is the common concert of all choirs.
