Together, Again
There are people you don’t see often, but the moment you do, it feels like no time has passed. There are songs you haven’t sung in years, yet your voice remembers every note. This weekend is about that feeling.
Up with People has always been more than performances or programs. It’s the late-night conversations. The friendships that picked up right where they left off. The way music made strangers feel like family. For one weekend in Denver, we come back to that space, to sing, to reconnect, to be together again.

Key Events
On Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon, come cheer on and applaud Voices Rock as 180 voices take the stage following 7 weeks of rehearsal and reconnection, performing 12 UWP classics, backed by a 6-piece live band. Along the way, legacy soloists return to the spotlight, composer interviews add depth and context, and iconic dances reconnect us to the movement that shaped generations.
Across two live performances on June 27 and 28 in Denver, the sound, movement, and stories come together… alive, powerful, and shared with the audience and the world.
You can still join the choir!

Do you miss the cathartic experience of singing with a cast of hundreds, sharing a bold and hopeful message of peace in this angry world?
On Saturday midday, we invite you to a high-energy, UWP-themed vocal jam session. In just two hours, hundreds of voices will come together to learn one/two UWP songs, jam out to rich harmonies and powerful lyrics, and showcase our shared humanity. Singing side by side, not as strangers, but as humans. No solos. No pressure. All levels are welcome!
Come fill your cup and rediscover the power of UWP music and group singing.

The Global Leaders Circle gathering is an invitation into deeper conversation and shared purpose. This special meeting brings together board members, alumni leaders, and supporters for thoughtful dialogue about where Up with People Foundation is today and where it is headed next.
Through reflection, updates, and open conversation, we reconnect around leadership, responsibility, and the values that continue to guide the Foundation and its community.

Join the Choir
A special 7-week program (May and June 2026) where UWP alumni and community members come together to sing again, just like we used to. The program is led by Voices Rock, a UWP alumna-founded community choir known for bringing adults and kids together to sing rock and pop songs in an inclusive, no-experience-needed environment. Take part from anywhere in the world.
In-person (in Denver) and online rehearsals make it easy to join, whether you are local or across the globe. After seven weeks of rehearsing, reconnecting, and rediscovering that unmistakable UWP energy, we will take the stage together for two live performances during the Up with People Weekend.
