CHOIR! CHOIR! CHOIR! Will Come to Des Moines in May
The event will take place on May 15, 2026, at 6:00 p.m.
An evening of participatory music-making is set to take over downtown Des Moines this spring as Des Moines Performing Arts welcomes the internationally recognized collective Choir! Choir! Choir! to its stage.
The event will take place on May 15, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at the Temple Theater, offering audiences a chance to become part of the performance rather than simply observe it.
Founded in 2011 by Daveed Goldman and Nobu Adilman, Choir! Choir! Choir! has gained global attention for its unique format: attendees are taught vocal arrangements live during the event and then join together in a large-scale group performance. The concept transforms traditional concerts into communal experiences, blending elements of performance, workshop, and social gathering.
The concert will feature the music of QUEEN.
Since 2011, Choir! Choir! Choir! directors Daveed Goldman + Nobu Adilman have blurred the lines between performer and audience, traveling the world to create harmony with strangers and friends alike. They’ve collaborated with renowned artists like Patti Smith, David Byrne, Brandi Carlile, Rick Astley, Rufus Wainwright, and even Kermit the Frog at New York’s Lincoln Center, creating memorable videos that have garnered views in the millions.
