Every year ( except 2012) IABS hold Quartet and Chorus competitions for National and International Barbershop Singing in different locations around Ireland. In 2011 it was held in Galway and in 2010 was in Limerick. This year Choruses and quartets will come to Waterford from the U.S.A., England, Holland, Finland and Sweden to compete and enjoy the Irish convention.

We endeavour to involve local schools, communities and businesses in experiencing the Barbershop Genre during these weekends.
