Fascinating Place

Cappadocia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a unique place to meet choirs from all over the world. You will feel the history in its stones.

Concert Venues

Choirs perform in extraordinary venues such as the Güray Museum, the world's first underground ceramics museum, carved 20 metres into the rock.

All-in-One Package

4 nights at the 5★ Suhan Cappadocia Hotel with breakfast, workshops and concerts, from €330 per person. Early bird prices until 31 December 2026.

Renowned Conductors

Daily 2-hour choral workshops and 1-hour conducting workshops led by Sebastjan Vrhovnik (Slovenia) and Sabelo Mthembu (South Africa).

Jury & Certificates

Sebastjan Vrhovnik and Sabelo Mthembu will listen to every choir and share their feedback in an evaluation meeting after the concerts. Every singer receives a Participation Certificate.

Suitable Dates

The dates were chosen with the weather, academic calendars and the Cappadocia event season in mind, so that as many choirs as possible can join us.

“Conductors Say”

  • Cappadocia is the ideal location in Turkey to be the choral center for the country and also for Europe, thanks to its beautiful nature, history and venues in which it is always a pleasure to perform.

  • Top 5 things to do in Cappadocia: visit the Monks Valley, stay in a cave hotel, try out pottery and ceramics in Avanos, see the sunrise in a hot air baloon and of course sing an acapella piece in an acoustically perfect underground cave...
