The below table lists annual shape note singings. Each column of the table can be filtered, sorted, or searched to help you find singings you can attend. Click the Info button for more details and directions to the singing. The most recent updates made to this table are listed here. There is also a world map with a pin for each singing.
These annual singings are the best place to experience and participate in shape note singing. Most are all-day singings that start in the morning, break at noon for dinner on the grounds, and then continue singing in the afternoon until everyone who wants to lead a song has had a turn. Newcomers are always welcome.
