Eurovision Choir 2023 will be the third Eurovision Choir competition for choral singers, organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and Interkultur. Latvia will host the event for the second time.[1][2] The country previously hosted the first competition held in 2017.
Format[edit]
Competing countries who are members of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) are eligible to participate in Eurovision Choir. Nine countries participated at the inaugural event in 2017. Each competing country was represented by a professional choir, and each performed a choral piece lasting no more than six minutes in length. Each piece may include singular or several musical works or of a free genre; but must contain national or regional influence from the participating country.
