YALE’s PREMIERE A CAPPELLA GROUP
THE YALE
WHIFFENPOOFS
Friday, February 27, 2026
7:00 PM
America's Oldest Collegiate A Cappella Group
Every year, 14 senior Yale students are selected to be in the Whiffenpoofs, the world’s oldest and best-known collegiate a cappella group. Founded in 1909, the “Whiffs” began as a senior quartet that met weekly at Mory’s Temple Bar. Today, the group has become one of Yale’s most celebrated traditions.
Singing a mixture of old Yale tunes, jazz standards, and other hits from across the decades, the Whiffenpoofs perform more than 200 concerts across six continents each year.
The Whiffs are no strangers to fame, having performed at venues such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center and the White House. They’re at ease on television, too, having been part of hits such as “Gilmore Girls,” “Glee” and “Jeopardy,” among others. They’ve sung at the Rose Bowl and on “Saturday Night Live.” And they’re returning home to Connecticut this May!
