Where the Pupils are the Stars
Ireland's SPECTACULAR Primary School Music Event
The Big Sing is an inclusive celebration of joyous music. The show is centred around the children themselves performing all together and provides an opportunity for primary school children age 8-12 to perform in the National Stadium, alongside professional performers and young cultural leaders. The show aims to provide a platform for children, who may not otherwise have experienced the joy of performing in front of a live audience in a large professional venue.
Open to ALL schools
The Big Sing RETURNS to
the National Stadium, Dublin
March 31st - April 4th 2025
The programme is secular with a non-denominational focus, celebrating diversity of all kinds. It is also based on Ireland today - Eire Innui - drawing from popular music, family Disney hits, as well as ceoil as Gaeilge, alongside a chosen focus on other musical heritage. The show is non-narrative in its nature, therefore more inclusive for non-English speaking family members.
A Celebration of Diversity, Culture and the Sheer Joy of Music
