Help Mixology A Cappella Chorus Represent K-W and Canada on the World Stage in Wuppertal, Germany 2026

We are Mixology A Cappella Chorus (mixologyacappella.com), a passionate, mixed-voice, inclusive, auditioned ensemble based in the Kitchener/Waterloo area. We are made up of singers from musical theatre, bands, diverse performance backgrounds, and regular people who simply love to sing and harmonize.

Mixology first formed in 2018 with a goal: to become one of Canada’s top-scoring mixed a cappella choruses and win the right to represent Canada at the world competition, Bing! Musikfestival in Germany. We were very proud to accomplish that goal after a lot of hard work, performances, practices, and competition. But then, one week from boarding flights when then the global pandemic shut the world down. Bing! was cancelled along with just about everything else.

We’ve done something extraordinary: we’ve won this opportunity again! This year, we have won another chance, a second, incredible opportunity: Mix has been invited to March at Bing! Musikfestival 2026 (BMF2026) in Wuppertal, Germany. Some of the best mixed a cappella ensembles from around the world will come together to compete, connect, and sing together. (worldmixed.org)

The first event we ever performed at was the opening ceremonies of Kitchener-Waterloo Oktoberfest. Our very first sponsor was the Schwaben Club. We have the chance to build bridges between our community and the global a cappella family, to bring home stories and music that connect people.

To make this dream possible, we need your help. Costs for registration, travel, accommodations, and other competition-related expenses add up quickly. Your help will make the trip affordable for our singers and cover essential costs.

How your donation can help:

• Each dollar offsets essential travel expenses.

• Donations ensure singers of all financial backgrounds can participate.

• Funds help send a little bit of K-W to the world stage.

About Mixology

We are passionate about harmony, community, and the connection created when singing a cappella harmony. Over the years, we’ve performed at festivals, concerts, community events, in musicals, and at private functions. Mix sings a wide range of genres and voicings from jazz and pop to musical theatre and barbershop.

If you know someone in our chorus — or simply care about supporting local music and the arts — please consider donating. Every contribution brings us closer to Wuppertal, and sharing this fundraiser helps just as much.

We’ll be posting updates on our rehearsals, fundraising progress, and our journey to BMF2026.

Thank you for helping make this dream a reality
