Here’s how to join the giant choir in preparation for the festival
In June 2026, Brussels will host Various Voices, the European LGBTQI+ choir festival. Before the grand finale at the ING Arena, you can join a giant choir and take part in several rehearsals open to all at Bozar.
10 March 2026
From 24 to 28 June 2026, Brussels will be buzzing with the rhythm of Various Voices, the European LGBTQI+ choir festival. For five days, 120 choirs and nearly 4,000 singers from 18 countries will fill the city with song in iconic venues such as Bozar, Cirque Royal, La Madeleine and the ING Arena.
The programme includes concerts, meetings and a grand musical celebration that will showcase the diversity of voices from across Europe.
A giant choir for the grand finale
The highlight of the festival will be the show ‘Let Your Heart Be Heard’, organised on Saturday 27 June at the ING Arena. That evening, more than 4,000 voices will come together to form the largest choir ever seen in Brussels, alongside Belgian artists.
A unique moment of music and emotion.
You can be part of it
For this occasion, the organisers want to create the largest participatory choir ever seen in Brussels to perform the festival anthem, ‘Let Your Heart Be Heard’, an invitation to raise your voice in favour of a more open society.
To prepare for this, three rehearsals open to the public are being organised at Bozar:
Sunday 19 April – from 2pm to 5pm
Sunday 10 May – from 2pm to 5pm
Sunday 7 June – from 2pm to 5pm
You can participate in one or more rehearsals, depending on your availability.
After registering, you will receive the sheet music, recordings and explanations to help you learn the song.
An experience open to all
No need to be a professional singer: the main goal is to enjoy a unique collective musical experience.
A symbolic contribution of €5 is requested to participate in the rehearsals. Registration is free if you already have your ticket for the show at the ING Arena.
