Denmark Festival of Voice - 2 to 4 June 2023

The Denmark Festival of Voice is not your average music festival. Held in the beautiful south coastal town of Denmark, Western Australia, the festival is one of only two dedicated vocal festivals in Australia. The festival explores diversity, celebrating voices from near and far and those from the edge. Music is only one part of the program alongside storytelling, spoken word, poetry and experimental performance.

The festival features many choirs and offers lots of opportunities for audience participation in singing.

There is a big component of the festival dedicated to First Nations song and stories, presented by Noongar performers from the South West and Albany.

The festival takes place in multiple venues in Denmark. The majority of these are accessible. Everything presented at the Denmark Artshouse is free to attend, otherwise full weekend passes are available for purchase before hand. Or individual events can be paid for on the door. The final program is still being put together and will be released next week - in the meantime tickets can be purchased online.
