Gloria Festival 2026 is an international choral competition in Prague welcoming choirs from across Europe and beyond. As part of the Musica Orbis Festivals, it provides professional adjudication, structured competition categories, and performances in prestigious historic venues in Prague.
The competition was established in 2021 in response to growing interest among Czech and Slovak choirs seeking a competitive format within the Musica Orbis framework. The first edition took place at the Bohuslav Martinů Hall in Prague and welcomed six ensembles in three categories. Since then, the festival has steadily expanded and attracted choirs from multiple European countries.
Over the following editions, Gloria Festival has built its reputation as a respected international choir competition in Prague, combining artistic excellence, professional evaluation, and the inspiring cultural atmosphere of the city.
Take part in Gloria Festival 2026 and present your choir on an international stage in the heart of Europe.
