Meet the Category Winners of The Open Competition in the second part of this year's World Choir Games
Another exciting chapter has come to an end at the World Choir Games 2026 in Helsingborg. Tonight it was time to celebrate the achievements of the choirs competing in The Open Competition of the second part of the World Choir Games.
