Celebrating the transformative power of singing.

Inspired by the age-old tradition of gathering around a fire, this Tasmanian winter event series has become Australia's leading singing celebration.

Since the first Festival in 2005, our series of events has become a symbol of warmth and community, drawing 30 000 people during the Festival period. The Big Sing, where it all began, remains a vital part of the Festival, symbolising the joy and vitality of singing together. The program includes various music styles, including choral, contemporary, and cabaret, attracting music lovers worldwide.
