Sing Ireland is excited to announce National Singing Week 2026. Join us in celebrating group singing across the Island of Ireland from the 9 - 15 February 2026.

National Singing Week has always been a time to celebrate the myriad benefits of group singing, from fostering community spirit to enhancing personal well-being.  This week-long celebration shines a spotlight on the joy and numerous benefits of group singing, inviting people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities to come together and experience the transformative power of singing. 

Every Voice Counts is Sing Ireland’s call to action for an Ireland where every voice is heard, valued, and uplifted. Sing Ireland is calling on choirs and singing groups, whether in  schools, at work, or in local communities, to open their doors and invite every voice to join in. 

With over 229,000 people already participating in group singing across Ireland, National Singing Week is a chance to inspire even more to embrace singing as a path to connection, wellbeing, and fun.
