Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends of Choral Music,
After two difficult years when choral singing was mostly impossible, we are very happy to invite your choir to the ancient city of Prague in the heart of Europe where the traditional Prague Choral Meetings will be take place on the following weekends:

Prague Spring  Choral Meeting                                                 April 27 -  30, 2023
Prague Summer  Choral Meeting  I                                           July 06 - 09, 2023
Prague Summer  Choral Meeting   II                                         August 10 - 13, 2023
Prague Autumn Choral Meeting                                                November 9 -  12, 2023
Prague Advent Choral Meeting  I                                              November 30 – December 03, 2023
Prague Advent Choral Meeting  II                                             December  07  - 10, 2023
Prague Advent Choral Meeting  III                                            December  14  - 17, 2023

The choral meetings are open to choral groups with min. 14 singers of all ages and all kinds (mixed, male, women, children, barbershop, gospel, church choir, gregorian music, instrumental vokal ensemble, …) from all over the world – as their name reveals, it is not a stressfull contest but a unique opportunity to meet other choirs from different countries, sing together and make new friends in the magic atmosphere of the beautiful Old Town of Prague. You will also be able to see all historical monuments of our capital – learn about Czech history, traditions as well as contemporary life. Prague is famous for its rich musical traditions and cultural life – it is a city of the musical greats such as Dvorak, Smetana as well as Mozart who loved Prague. 
Prague Advent  Choral Meeting is the biggest, most popular and best attended choral event in pre-Christmas Prague – in 2019 we welcomed at our meetings  more than 71 choirs from 22 countries. Most participating choirs come to the festival on Thursday and leave on Sunday, but is is also possible to arrive on Friday. Depending on the lenght of stay and your wish, you would have two or one public perfomance of 30 minutes in churches in the Old Town – all concerts are open to the public and free of charge. As a rule, the concerts are held at the majestic St. Nicolas Church at the Old Town Square (built in the years 1732-1737) and St. Salvator Church (built in the years 1611-1614) and other venues in the center  of Prague.
On Saturday afternoon all participating choirs gather at a concert hall or church for a friendship concert – highlight of the festival is the common singing of all choirs. We will send you scores in advance and when all participants meet, the songs will be rehearsed and sung together.
In pre-Christmas time, there is a possibility to sing at a Christmas market. Apart from the concert program, you will have time for a walking tour of all main sights of Prague with your festival guide. In the evening you will be able to see our city from a boat on the Vltava River, visit a theatre or opera performance, get familiar with Czech cuisine and Prague ´s nightlife. However our meetings take place all over the year – Prague is a unique city with a special charm in all seasons and so no matter which meeting you choose, our team will do our best to organize an unforgettable choral stay for you!
The Millennium Agency Prague is exclusive organizer of stays of all participating groups. Our long-year experience and many satisfied and returning choirs guarantee you top service and satisfaction. All costs connected with festival participation are carried by the participants, the organizers reserve the right to arrange the stay in Prague for all participants - the transportation to Prague and back is to be organized directly by the choirs. 
Due to the specific conditions this year,  the organizers reserve the right  to cancel the event  should the number of participants be lower than 4. But even then we will not drop you and will assist you in preparation of your stay in our city.

Testimonials from the irish choirs who participated in Festivals

Dear Stanislav,

Now the dust has settled I wanted to write to say how much we enjoyed our trip to Prague. The service you provided was second to none and was one of the most 'luxurious' choir tours I have been on. The hotel was excellent and we were very happy with the performing venues. We particularly enjoyed singing in the magnificent acoustic of St Salvator's church, a special treat as we are normally used to performing in a small church. Stacy was extremely knowledgeable and friendly as a guide and liaison and the boat cruise was a great time for us all to sit together and celebrate the successful tour.

Many thanks again,

Tristan, St. Bartholomews Church Choir, Dublin, Ireland

Dear Stanislav, On behalf of the Monasterevin Gospel Choir I want to thank you and your group for an amazing experience in Prague, we had a wonderful time in your beautiful city and taking part in such fantastic Festival of music. Our guide Stacey was a lovely girl and looked after us so well she was willing to do anything for us and I would like you to express our sincere thanks to her. I left a little gift with her for you. Our hotel was also lovely. Kindest regards. Jacqui
