Win­nipeg is known across Cana­da for the music it cre­ates and for its excep­tion­al num­ber of singers and choirs, so fit­ting­ly, the Win­nipeg Arts Coun­cil will cel­e­brate our city’s 150th anniver­sary through a year of song.

Fea­tur­ing the best of our com­mu­ni­ty spir­it and artis­tic excel­lence, City of Song is a show­case for the best of Winnipeg’s local tal­ents, with guest per­form­ers from across Cana­da, and count­less oppor­tu­ni­ties for Win­nipeg­gers to engage in the pow­er of singing with friends and neigh­bours across the city.

From opera, to musi­cals, to choral con­certs, to singer-song­writ­ers, jazz singers, throat singers, Indige­nous chanters, coun­try croon­ers, rap­pers, children’s choirs, and com­mu­ni­ty singing events, City of Song will encom­pass the best of Winnipeg’s singing com­mu­ni­ty through­out 2024. It brings all Win­nipeg­gers togeth­er in a cel­e­bra­tion of com­mu­ni­ty, his­to­ry, har­mo­ny, inter­cul­tur­al col­lab­o­ra­tion, and hope for the future.

The Win­nipeg Arts Coun­cil is part­ner­ing with Man­i­to­ba Choral Asso­ci­a­tion and with many of the city’s per­form­ing arts orga­ni­za­tions to include ele­ments of choral music in their sea­son pro­gram­ming through­out 2024.
