Experience the after-hours magic of Festival of Voices at the Singers' Lounge. Located in Salamanca Arts Centre's Long Gallery, it's where the Festival comes alive with music, camaraderie, and creativity.

Each evening features captivating performances from talented artists. The stage transforms into an open mic haven where performers can share material. Add your name to the blackboard list; this space celebrates courage, connection, and community.

The Lounge celebrates connection. In 2025, acclaimed professionals like The Velvetones and The Australian Voices shared the stage with first-time performers. This embodies the Singers' Lounge spirit: where music unites. The atmosphere dissolves lines between professional and amateur, making everyone part of the magic.

In 2026, we introduce the Choir Lounge, a sister space in the Founders Room, designed to broaden the experience. It will run on selected evenings (dates to be announced).

The Choir Lounge features intimate performances showcasing everything from choral classics to bold contemporary works. It's a space to slow down, listen deeply, and immerse yourself in the artistry of ensemble singing. Feel the connection through harmony, where every breath and blend can be felt.

Both the Singers' Lounge and Choir Lounge are at the heart of the Festival's identity. We invite you to immerse yourself in a community that celebrates music and belonging, and leave with unforgettable memories.
