VIRTUAL COMPETITIONS<br />

Even though choirs in many countries around the world are allowed to rehearse and<br />

perform again, there are still numerous restrictions, especially when it comes to traveling<br />

and so, despite the postponement, many choirs will not be able to be with us in <strong>Flanders</strong>.<br />

And so, for the first time in the history of the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Choir</strong> <strong>Games</strong>, virtual competitions<br />

will also take place, which allows us to stay true to our motto “Singing together brings<br />

nations together”.<br />

We are all the more pleased that almost 200 choirs from more than 40 countries have<br />

registered to participate in the virtual competitions of this edition of the <strong>Games</strong>.<br />
