63rd Seghizzi International Choral Singing Competition

Gorizia reestablishes itself as a global capital of choral music by hosting the 63rd edition of the prestigious "Seghizzi" International Choral Singing Competition. From July 9th to 13th, 2026, vocal ensembles from around the world will compete across a diverse program of artistic categories.

The Gorizia Choral Association "C. A. Seghizzi" officially presents the 63rd International Choral Singing Competition, a landmark cultural event returning this year with updated regulations designed to foster high-level artistic excellence.

Backed by the prestigious Medal of the Presidency of the Italian Republic, the competition features an internationally acclaimed jury panel evaluating elite choirs across multiple repertoires, ranging from Renaissance polyphony to contemporary music, pop, and jazz. 

In tandem with the competitive stages held throughout Gorizia’s historic landmarks, the "Seghizzinregione" festival will extend the reach of the event through a series of concerts spanning Friuli Venezia Giulia, Veneto, and neighboring Slovenia.

The festival will reach its climax on Sunday, July 12th, at the Teatro Verdi, with the staging of the 36th Grand Prix Seghizzi and the final Gala Concert showcasing the winning choirs.
