song festival
Choral competition event
A song festival is a large public event celebrating choral or folk singing, typically featuring massed choirs or musical performances tied to cultural identity.
The term is especially associated with the Baltic states, where national song festivals have been held since the 19th century and carry deep significance for cultural preservation: The Estonian Song Festival draws tens of thousands of singers.
