"Спасибо за фантастический фестиваль! Мы действительно смогли насладиться прекрасными днями в Калелье. Всё было отлично организовано и солнце было на нашей стороне каждый день."
7th Canta al mar – Festival Coral Internacional
Sing and Fun at the Mediterranean Sea
The festival "Canta al mar" has become an essential activity in INTERKULTUR’s event calendar. Since 2012 choirs from all over the world have met in the city of Calella in Catalonia/Spain to celebrate the international choral festival through songs and local delights
Each year Calella attracts new choirs with its Catalan charm. Long sandy beaches, sunny weather, the Mediterranean Sea and the proximity to the Spanish metropolis of Barcelona are only some of the things that make this participation an unforgettable experience. Barcelona is a bonus option for choirs, whether they would like to include it in their individual competition schedule or simply as a destination for excursions.
All concert and competition venues in Calella are within walking distance and can therefore be combined ideally with a pleasant stroll through the historic center - a great way for choirs to meet, sing together in Friendship Concerts and get to know other nations and their individual traditions.
Enjoy a happy and relaxed choir event on the Spanish Mediterranean Coast in a festival that beautifully combines holiday and passion!

Església de Santa Maria i Sant Nicolau
Address: Carrer del Raval, 1, 08370 Calella, Barcelona, Spain
Església de Santa Maria i Sant Nicolau is a church in the town of Calella that was built in 1747 after the tower of the original building from 1564 collapsed and destroyed the building. It is built in a neoclassical style and was designed by Josep Morato. After the total destruction and the burning of the interior in 1936, the church was rebuilt from 1939 and finally reopened on September 23, 1951. The church belongs to the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia. The church is illuminated by the large rose window of the main facade and two windows (rear) on eachside of the ship.

Catedral de Barcelona
Address: Pla de la Seu, s/n, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
The Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia, also known as Barcelona Cathedral, is the Gothic cathedral and seat of the Archbishop of Barcelona. It was built from the 13th to 15th century and in the late 19th century the neo-Gothic facade was constructed over the inconspicuous exterior that was common to Catalan churches. There are two chapels in each section of the naves, encircling the entire basilica.
The roof of the Cathedral is notable for its gargoyles, featuring a wide range of animals, both domestic and mythical. From 1968 to 1972 the cathedral was restored.

Santa Maria del Pi
Address: Plaça del Pi, 7, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Santa Maria del Pi, meaning "St. Mary of the Pine Tree", is a 14th-century Gothic church in Barcelona and is situated on the Plaça del Pi, in the Barri Gòtic district of the city. There are unsubstantiated claims that there was an early Christian church located in 413. For a certainty it is known that in 987 there existed a church outside the city walls and to the west of Barcelona. This was a small Romanesque church dedicated to the Blessed Lady of the Pine Tree (one of the titles of the Virgin Mary). The church was built between 1319 and 1391. The style of the church was Catalan Gothic, with a single nave almost devoid of ornamentation. The church has six bells, of which the largest is "Antònia". In 1936 the church was gutted by a fire and was later restored.

Sala Mozart
Address: Carrer Esglesia 91, 08370 Calella, Barcelona, Spain
Sala Mozart is a cinema as well as theater and musical center in the inner city of Calella. It is one of the oldest cinemas in Spain and was opened already in 1904. During the last year, the hall was rebuilt after more than 100 years of running.

3,5 kilometers of sandy beach, its location directly at the Mediterranean Sea and its proximity to Barcelona make Calella a popular European destination. During the choral festival singers can wonderfully make music, stroll and relax in the contemplative old town with its Catalan and Mediterranean charm.
Since its 650 years of history Calella has developed from a small fishing village into a favoured resort of all nations and age groups. This mixture of modernity, hospitality and Catalan traditions add a special touch to Calella and thus make it an appealing travel destination.
Competition Results
We congratulate all singers to their great results! All in all 29 golden, 24 silver and 3 bronze diplomas were awarded. Many thanks to all choirs and ensembles for participating!
