What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival's scale sets it apart within Herceg Novi's cluster of music events: the 2025 jubilee edition alone drew 29 choirs and around 900 participants from seven countries, a regional reach that places it among the larger choral gatherings in this part of the Balkans

02

The mystery stays covered

Organized by the NGO Montenegro Choir Association rather than a municipal or commercial body, the festival carries a specifically choral, community-organization character

03

The city starts moving

Its three award categories, best choir, best conductor and best spiritual-music performance, give it a structured competitive format that recognizes different aspects of choral performance rather than judging ensembles on a single overall score, and the inclusion of a dedicated spiritual-music prize points to sacred repertoire forming a specific strand of the competition alongside secular choral work
