Barcelona, the Mediterranean's proudest city is getting ready to welcome Various Voices singers from all over Europe in 2026! Barcelona Rainbow Singers and Barcelona Gay Men's Chorus united in harmony and created a joint candidacy with the motto:
Singing Together. Dreaming Together.
These two choirs, with 11 and 6 years of experience respectively, dream of enchanting Legato members and singers with a proposal uniting organizational excellence and creative emotion in equal measures. In the capable hands of a first-class artistic and technical team, the backing of city hall among other local and national administrations, and the support of important figures in activism, tourism, culture and commerce, Barcelona, with diversity its banner wants the world to experience our enormously welcoming city in the best way possible, through choral singing.
Various Voices Barcelona 2026 will bring music to some of the most renowned, emblematic venues the city has to offer as well as to less well known areas of the city; to neighbourhoods where more LGTBIQ+ visibility is needed, or to places with symbolic significance for our collective, tracing a pathway with an historic and identity defining narrative.
Milestone events such as the 1992 Olympic Games, the 2008 EuroGames or the most multitudinous Mediterranean Pride celebrations influence the spirit of the proposal, which will honour the past with references such as Freddy Mercury, in a unique, never seen before event.
We aim to leave an indelible legacy in the city, its inhabitants and its visitors.
Our dream is that Barcelona city & Legato can experience this project in which music, activism, technology, coexistence, values and, above all, passion, are fused together in a perfect melody.
We invite you to come and dream with us!
Various Voices, Barcelona 2026 is waiting for you!
