Eurovision Choir 2017 (originally Eurovision Choir of the Year 2017) was the first Eurovision Choir competition for choral singers, which was organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and the Interkultur Foundation. It was held on 22 July 2017, at the Arena Riga, in the Latvian capital, Riga. The first edition was produced by Latvian host broadcaster Latvijas Televīzija (LTV) and the Riga Tourism Development Bureau.[1] Nine countries participated in the inaugural contest, including Wales, which marked the second time that the United Kingdom has not participated as a unified state in any of the Eurovision Network events, after 1994, when Wales participated lastly in the Jeux Sans Frontières.

Location

{{details|topic=the host city|Riga}}

Latvia hosted its first Eurovision network event since the Eurovision Song Contest 2003, which took place at Skonto Hall in Riga.

Venue

On 14 February 2017, it was confirmed that the inaugural contest would take place at the Arena Riga, located in the Latvian capital.[2] The arena is primarily used for ice hockey, basketball and concerts. Riga Arena holds a maximum of 14,500 and was completed in 2006. It was built to be used as one of the venues for the 2006 IIHF World Championship, the other being Skonto Arena. It has been home to the Kontinental Hockey League club Dinamo Riga since 2008. During the years the Arena has also hosted many well-known artists from all over the world. The arena hosted the 'D' group of Eurobasket 2015.[2]

Format

Competing countries who are members of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) are eligible to participate in Eurovision Choir. Nine countries participated at the inaugural event. Each competing country was represented by a professional choir, and each performed a choral piece lasting no more than six minutes in length. Each piece may include singular or several musical works or of a free genre; but must contain national or regional influence from the participating country.[4] Tickets for the event went on sale on 15 March 2017.[5] The winning choir (Slovenia) received the title of Eurovision Choir of the Year 2017 and prize money from Riga City Council.[3]

Presenters

Announced on 27 February 2017, Grammy-winning composer and conductor Eric Whitacre and LTV culture presenter Eva Johansone, were the hosts for the inaugural contest that took place on 22 July 2017, in Riga, Latvia.[4][1]
