The Wollongong Schools' Choral Festival showcases choral groups from public schools as far north as Stanwell Park and far south as Warilla. The aim of the festival is to provide choral groups with an inclusive and encouraging environment to perform choral repertoire. 

The Festival aims to showcase the outcomes of music education in the Wollongong area and to encourage excellence in these programs by:

  • encouraging the development and teaching of choral programs at a school level
  • providing an opportunity for the school and wider community to recognise choral singing as an art form
  • providing a positive and memorable choral experience for both teachers and students at the Wollongong Town Hall.
