Applications are now open to find the very best primary and post-primary school choirs in Northern Ireland in 2019.

Presented by John Toal and Kerry McLean, BBC Northern Ireland School Choir of the Year, which returns as a yearly event, is organised in association with the Ulster Youth Choir and supported by the Arts Council Of Northern Ireland (ACNI).

During early 2019 the production team will be out across Northern Ireland with a series of heats which will be broadcast on BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle, culminating in a grand final, which will be screened for the first time on BBC NI television.
