CHOIRBURST
An exciting two-day choral marathon in the heart of downtown Victoria.
Building on the success of the first edition in Montreal (2024), we’re thrilled to be bringing this initiative back for PODIUM 2026! Choirburst is a special PODIUM 2026 event providing local and visiting choirs/singing groups the opportunity to share their music with the Victoria community in a “choral marathon” from 10:00am-6:00pm on Friday, May 15 and Saturday, May 16, 2026.
Each group will sing for 20 minutes, creating a vibrant showcase of voices throughout the day.
