Write songs yourself, tinker with lyrics, create compositions! SONGS - the songwriting competition in cooperation with the Stiftung Bildung und Soziales of the Sparda Bank Baden-Württemberg celebrates its fifth birthday and gives young songwriters the chance to be on stage with their song.

The participants can apply solo or as a band - also in cooperation with their teachers and pedagogical specialists - with their strongest song. The best ideas will be rewarded with attractive prizes!

For the musical equipment of the schools and youth centres there is prize money with a total value of 10,000 € to be won. In addition, the winners will receive professional coaching at the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg.

The SONGS final concert is the highlight of the competition! On 15 May 2020, the finalists will perform their SONGS live on stage at the Sparda World Event Center in Stuttgart in front of our expert jury and the audience.

The Stiftung Bildung und Soziales of the Sparda-Bank Baden-Württemberg is the funding partner for SONGS. Social and cultural commitment has always been an integral part of the corporate philosophy of the regionally rooted Sparda-Bank. The Sparda-Bank sees itself as a promotional partner that constantly sets new impulses, draws attention, makes opportunities possible and opens doors - as it does with the SONGS songwriting competition.
