About event

35. PRAGA CANTAT 2025
International Choir Competition and Festival
with the Grand Prix

The Praga Cantat festival, whose 35th jubilee edition will take place from 31 October to 3 November 2024, has become one of the most important choral events in Prague. 938 choirs from 43 countries participated in its past 34 editions and the total number of singers who came to Prague amounts to over 40,000. Only a worldwide pandemic stopped the promising development of the festival and forced us to skip the 2020-2022 years. However, a renewed festival has already taken place in 2023 and we hope that the festival will return in full force in 2024. We are pleased to continue the history of the festival in the same venue and look forward to cooperation with the National House in Vinohrady, where the festival has traditionally been held.
From 2023, the festival has been taken over by two students of Prof. Miroslav Košler (co-founder of the festival and choirmaster), Jakub Zicha and Jiří Petrdlík. Their work continues the legacy of their teacher and brings the festival back to its former popularity.
The Praga Cantat festival is not an exclusive competition. Alongside the excellent choirs, it is also attended by choirs that are at the beginning of their development, want to compare their strengths and experience the wonderful atmosphere of competition. The international expert jury not only evaluates the performances of the individual ensembles, but also gives valuable recommendations, which may help the choirmasters in their future work.

We are looking forward to welcoming you as our guests!
