Since the mid-1990s, the international competitions of the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar are a forum for the most promising musicians worldwide. First organised in Weimar in 1994, the International FRANZ LISZT Piano Competition sees itself as a peaceful contest at the highest level, in the spirit of Franz Liszt. The repertoire includes works by Franz Liszt as well as works by other composers. In the final round, the renowned Staatskapelle Weimar assists the contestants. The International JOSEPH JOACHIM Chamber Music Competition attracts the best up-and-coming ensembles to Weimar and is open to string trio and string and piano ensembles. Both competitions takes place on a three-year cycle.

The Khachaturian International Competition is an awaited and celebrated classical music event both locally and internationally. The competition was established on June 6, 2003, in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian, a giant pillar of the 20th century classical music for Armenia and the world. Launching every year on his birth date of June 6, the competition is designed to reveal young musical talents in five disciplines: piano, violin, cello (formerly including composition and vocal categories as well).
