The Singapore International Violin Competition (SIVC) returns in 2026, celebrating exceptional artistry and the future of violin performance. A triennial global platform, the Competition brings together 30 outstanding young violinists under the age of 30, and has, since its launch in 2014, grown into a distinctive international event that champions artistic excellence, contemporary creation and meaningful musical dialogue.

The Opening Ceremony marks the start of two weeks of exceptional music-making. This will be followed by the official balloting, during which the performance sequence for the Competition is determined, before the competitors take the stage before an international jury of distinguished performers and pedagogues in pursuit of the laureates of SIVC 2026.
