Tapestry International

Every three years, Elektra welcomes choirs from around the world to its 3-day Tapestry International Festival. Singing separately and as a massed choir with Elektra, our guest adult treble choirs spend three days together sharing, rehearsing, and giving public performances.

At Tapestry International, each ensemble’s unique voice is heard in a free concert called “Choral Threads”. The “Celebration Concert” in downtown Vancouver features cameos by each choir and a massed-choir finale.

Observing Conductors

Up to six individual conductors traveling without a choir may register to be part of Tapestry International 2026 as an Observing Conductor.  Registration is first-come, first-served until all spots have been filled. Please read the Observing Conductor program guidelines before completing your application form.
