4th Kalamata International Choir Competition and Festival

September 22 - 26, 2022 Kalamata, Greece

Singing in the Land of Gods

The combination of the sea, mountains, vineyards and olive trees, combined with the typical Greek hospitality has turned Kalamata into a place where singers from all over the world have felt at home for years.

With its location on the Southern Peloponnese Kalamata is a wonderful host for a choral event that combines the advantages of an international choral competition with various concert opportunities in a culturally diverse city. The special feature of this festival is an easy going gathering of different nations just in the middle of the wonderful setting of South East Europe.

Narrow lanes, a historic old town and the Apostles church of the 12th century have characterized the townscape until this day. Kalamata is further surrounded by some of the most beautiful bays and beaches Greece has to offer.

The choir competition offers categories for different levels of difficulty, types of ensembles and musical genres. The various venues are located in walking distance in the middle of the vivid old town with its numerous restaurants, cafés and small stores.

Vibrant, idyllic, and rich in variety – this is Kalamata!

Destination

Kalamata is a typical vibrant South European seaport with roughly 70.000 inhabitants. It represents the economical center of the South Peloponnese and is therefore a commercial as well as a touristic center of attraction. Kalamata is situated in the big bay of the Greek headlands and has a long sandy beach and a major harbour facility. The charming city center invites visitors to a stroll and lingering with its narrow alleys, many shops and typical Greek taverns.
One of Kalamata’s cultural highlights is the annual summer festival with concerts and performances at the municipal theatre which is located at the historic castle of Kalamata.
