Dozens of choirs, thousands of singers and several queer artists will share one stage in Brussels\u2019 largest concert hall, under the European flag. For KET readers who have been following the festival\u2019s journey, this is the moment where all those stories, open rehearsals and invitations converge into one massive queer chorus.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">From city\u2011wide warm\u2011up to arena finale<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KET has been following Various Voices from the moment Brussels was announced as the host city: explaining how&nbsp;<strong>120 LGBTQI+ choirs<\/strong>&nbsp;from around&nbsp;<strong>18 countries<\/strong>&nbsp;would turn the capital into a singing playground, and how around&nbsp;<strong>4,000 singers<\/strong>&nbsp;would be performing across Bozar, Cirque Royal, La Madeleine and the Royal Museums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another article focused on how Brussels was \u201cbuilding the biggest LGBTQI+ choir it has ever seen\u201d, through open rehearsals and an invitation for locals to join a giant choir, not just watch from the balconies. Most recently, KET highlighted that \u201cBrussels still has time to join the biggest LGBTQI+ choir at ING Arena\u201d, underlining how accessible the project remained right up to the final weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Let Your Heart Be Heard<\/strong>&nbsp;is the point where all those threads meet. Organised as the&nbsp;<strong>grand finale<\/strong>&nbsp;of the festival, the show is described as a \u201cspectacular\u201d evening of generational handover, marked by hope, freedom and solidarity. It is the moment when the anthem that gives the concert its name is sung not just by one choir, but by thousands of voices at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Let Your Heart Be Heard |Various Voices 2026 Festival anthem\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F8tZ1P9fSdg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens on the ING Arena stage?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The concert brings together dozens of choirs and queer artists from across Europe, all sharing a stage in a venue that can host up to&nbsp;<strong>7,000 people<\/strong>. Under the European flag, they will celebrate the progress made by LGBTQI+ communities and reflect on the future still to be built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choirs on the line\u2011up include names like&nbsp;<strong>Carmen Curlers<\/strong>&nbsp;(Denmark),&nbsp;<strong>Deep C Divas<\/strong>&nbsp;(UK),&nbsp;<strong>Equivox<\/strong>&nbsp;(France),&nbsp;<strong>European Queer Choir<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Galakoor Queer Klassiek<\/strong>&nbsp;(Netherlands),&nbsp;<strong>Krakofonia<\/strong>&nbsp;(Poland),&nbsp;<strong>Out \u2019n Loud<\/strong>&nbsp;(Finland),&nbsp;<strong>Philhomoniker<\/strong>&nbsp;(Germany),&nbsp;<strong>Pink Singers<\/strong>&nbsp;(UK),&nbsp;<strong>Queerchor Hannover<\/strong>&nbsp;(Germany),&nbsp;<strong>Sing Out Brussels!<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Singing Proud Nottingham<\/strong>&nbsp;(UK),&nbsp;<strong>The Friends of Dorothy<\/strong>&nbsp;(Finland),&nbsp;<strong>Vikerlased<\/strong>&nbsp;(Estonia) and&nbsp;<strong>WEIBrations<\/strong>&nbsp;(Germany).<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/various-voices.be\/shows\/let-your-heart-be-heard\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their voices will meet around the festival anthem&nbsp;<strong>\u201cLet Your Heart Be Heard\u201d<\/strong>, written to capture the shared dreams and hopes of this choir community and recorded in advance by Sing Out Brussels! to anchor the festival\u2019s sound.

As the organisers explained in the giant choir call covered by KET, the project is also open to people living in Brussels or elsewhere in Belgium who want to sing, even if they are not part of an existing ensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tickets for the show give access to&nbsp;<strong>three rehearsals at Bozar<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 on&nbsp;<strong>19 April, 10 May and 7 June<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 designed to let local participants learn the anthem and feel at ease before stepping into the arena. For those who have been hesitating, the concert really is the&nbsp;<strong>last chance<\/strong>&nbsp;to be inside the story rather than just watching it: standing on the floor or in the stands as part of the largest LGBTQI+ choir Brussels has ever hosted, making their own heart heard alongside thousands of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why this finale matters for queer Brussels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ket.brussels\/2026\/05\/29\/brussels-is-about-to-sing-queer-various-voices-2026-unfolds-across-the-city\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/ket.brussels\/2026\/05\/29\/brussels-is-about-to-sing-queer-various-voices-2026-unfolds-across-the-city\/\">Various Voices is not just a festival \u201cpassing through\u201d. <\/a>It is an event organised by\u00a0<strong>Sing Out Brussels!<\/strong>, the city\u2019s own \u201cFabulous Queer Choir\u201d, with the support of the European LGBTQI+ choir network Legato, to create a more welcoming, inclusive and supportive world through singing. The festival\u2019s presence in Brussels has already meant new collaborations, visibility in major venues, and a sense of shared ownership over central cultural spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ING Arena finale pushes that further. Bringing thousands of queer voices together in the city\u2019s largest concert hall is a statement: that LGBTQI+ stories, loves and struggles belong in big arenas, not just community rooms. It is also a rare intergenerational space where older and younger singers, long\u2011standing choirs and newer groups can literally pass the microphone from one generation to the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For KET\u2019s readers \u2013 and for anyone who has felt too shy, too out of practice or too \u201cnot musical enough\u201d to join a choir \u2013 this finale is a reminder that queer community is not only about perfection or performance. It is about showing up, breathing together and letting a shared song carry what words alone cannot say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical info<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Show:\u00a0<strong>Let Your Heart Be Heard<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Various Voices Brussels 2026 finale<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Date:\u00a0<strong>Saturday 27 June 2026<\/strong>, evening (concert is seated)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Venue:\u00a0<strong>ING Arena<\/strong>, Brussels\u2019 largest concert hall<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Festival:\u00a0<strong>Various Voices Brussels 2026<\/strong>, from\u00a0<strong>24 to 28 June 2026<\/strong>\u00a0across venues like Bozar, Cirque Royal, La Madeleine and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Giant choir rehearsals: Bozar \u2013 7 June (ticket holders)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tickets &amp; info:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Festival site: &lt;https:\/\/various-voices.be><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Show page: &lt;https:\/\/various-voices.be\/shows\/let-your-heart-be-heard\/><a href=\"https:\/\/various-voices.be\/shows\/let-your-heart-be-heard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ING Arena: &lt;https:\/\/ing.arena.brussels\/show\/let-your-heart-be-heard\/><a href=\"https:\/\/ing.arena.brussels\/show\/let-your-heart-be-heard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ticketing: &lt;https:\/\/ticketlive.be\/events\/let-your-heart-be-heard-ing-arena\/><a href=\"https:\/\/ticketlive.be\/events\/let-your-heart-be-heard-ing-arena\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>If you have been following the festival in KET or hearing about it from friends, this concert is one last, powerful chance to be part of the sound rather than just clapping along.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>KET Magazine is a community\u2011driven, non\u2011profit magazine run by volunteers based in Brussels.
