The annual Waltons RTÉ lyric fm Music for Schools Competition is a non-profit national event celebrating and supporting music in Irish schools.
Open to all primary and post-primary schools in the Republic of Ireland, the Competition annually awards a total of €7,000 worth of vouchers for musical instruments and equipment from Waltons Music, including two first prizes of €2,000 vouchers, and music groups from twelve Finalist schools have the opportunity to perform before their peers and distinguished adjudicators in a gala Finalists Concert in the National Concert Hall.
