Toronto’s only a cappella festival features concert performances incorporating an array of musical styles — from folk to pop, classical to jazz, R&B to spoken word, and even beatboxing and battle rap. This year’s festival takes place at several locations across Toronto, with virtual events also available. Click below to see the event highlight.
The festival will also offer a free Virtual Music Business Summit hosted by industry experts, with seminars including the rise of AI in the arts, music rights and the law, personal branding and marketing, and career paths for collegiate singers.
Ticket prices range from free to $40, with some shows offering half-price tickets for students and arts workers. Festival passes are $150, with three-day beatboxing passes available for $74. The full schedule with pricing is at singtoronto.com.
A registered charity, SING! The Toronto International Vocal Arts Festival also aims to encourage the next generation of singers. The festival includes a School Workshop Day (Monday, May 26th, 2025), a full day of interactive workshops for grades 7-12, facilitated by festival headlining artists and other performers. And the I Love to SING! vocal arts and performance program (ongoing to September 2024) offers youth from across Toronto the opportunity to be mentored by professional artists in weekly sessions.
