The Voice Festival's central purpose is to increase the awareness and popularity of the a cappella art form in the UK, and to support the development of the existing UK a cappella scene, by recruiting and encouraging new participants, developing new audiences, supporting and educating existing participants and building UK a cappella communities.
[1] Still run by a growing team of volunteers, the organisation has increased its offering year on year, and now offers a series of workshops, masterclasses, concerts, competitions and networking events for singers of all ages across three separate programmes: youth, university and community.
From 2009 to 2010, there were three regional rounds of the Festival, held in Oxford, Cambridge and St Andrews.
On three occasions, the winners of the annual university competition have been invited to perform at the ICCA final in New York.
The Voice Collection II arrived three years later, released at the 2016 Festival Weekend.
