In the summer of 2027, from 9 to 15 August, the international choral music festival EUROPA CANTAT will take place in Liepāja, Latvia, bringing together about 3,000 participants from across Europe and around the world.

In 2027, EUROPA CANTAT will be held for the 22nd time. More than 3,000 participants – singers, conductors, educators, and music enthusiasts from Europe and beyond – are expected to attend. The aim of the festival is to strengthen the European choral community by offering opportunities for collective music-making, learning, and intercultural collaboration, and to enrich the cultural life of Latvia and Europe while reinforcing Liepāja’s role as an international hub for musical events.

During the week, concerts and sing-along events, as well as opening and closing ceremonies and guest artist performances, will take place in Liepaja. Participants will have opportunity to take part in more than 30 workshops led by outstanding conductors, exploring repertoire from various genres, discovering each other’s cultures, and broadening their musical horizons. In 2027, Liepāja will serve as a European Capital of Culture, and the festival represents an important part of the Liepāja 2027 cultural programme. T

The EUROPA CANTAT 2027 programme will be announced in summer 2026, and participant registration will open in autumn.
