3rd Lisbon Sings
Let the summer end together with choirs from around the world
Traveling to an international choir competition in Portugal has always been on the bucket list of many singers worldwide. "LISBON SINGS" offers the ideal opportunity to fulfill this wish.
Portugal's largest university, the Universidade de Lisboa, opens its doors during this time and becomes the center of choral music - with competitions in various categories, numerous concerts and individual consultation rounds for the participating choirs, offering a full and varied musical program to participants and visitors during the festival days.
There couldn't be a better time of the year to sing with us in Lisbon: according to legend, the warm, clear days often seen in early November in Portugal are caused by St. Martin's act of charity, making this period also known as "Verão de São Martinho", the Saint Martin's Summer. That means, when the days in Northern Europe are getting colder, Lisbon still sees pleasant temperatures.
Join in and celebrate the last sunny summer days in Lisbon while meeting choirs from all over the world!
INVITATION
Enjoy the stages, history, culture and flavors of Lisbon together with choirs from all over the world! Be part of the new event series LISBON SINGS and enjoy a few wonderful late summer days filled with friendship and singing in this beautiful, welcoming city on the Atlantic coast!

Destination
If you're dreaming about your next trip to Europe, come and discover Lisbon, a historical city full of stories to tell, where the sun shines 290 days a year and the temperature rarely drops below 15°C. A city where you feel safe wandering around day or night, where the cuisine is dedicated to creating over a thousand ways to cook the beloved bacalhau (salted cod), and where you'll find hotels and restaurants to suit every taste, budget and requirement. Discover Lisbon, a city full of authenticity where old customs and ancient history intermix with cultural entertainment and hi-tech innovation. Lisbon is ageless, but it loves company, as you'll find out if you meet someone and ask them to explain, with lots of gestures and repetition, where the best place is to listen to Fado. After all, Lisbon is famous for its hospitality and the family-like way it welcomes visitors.
