Inaugural Youth Choral Festival - June 27-July 2, 2024

SDCC presented its inaugural festival in summer 2024 to more than 200 middle and high school singers from across the country for five days of music making and iconic San Diego experiences, hosted at University of San Diego. On top of having a blast throughout the festival, choristers developed and enhanced lasting friendships as well as increased their independence and self reliance. Thanks to each of the participating youth choirs for making this first festival unforgettable: Boston Children's Chorus, ChildrenSong of New Jersey, Encore Music Academy, Honors Choirs of Southeast Minnesota, Ragazzi Boys Chorus, Rainier Youth Choirs, the South Shore Children's Chorus, and choristers from the San Diego Children’s Choir. Participating choirs rated the San Diego Youth Choral Festival an average of 4.75 out of 5 for overall satisfaction with the Festival.
