Choir Fest 2018 – come and join us!
Saturday 7 July 2018
The Big Top Tent, Wyvern School, Fair Oak, SO50 7AN
We are looking for school and community choirs to join us at the Big Top Tent and help us in delivering an all day programme of choirs and singing. You will join all five of the Youth Choirs as well as hopefully school choirs, showing our young people how they can continue their passion for music after they have left education and what else is on offer throughout the county.
Alongside all the singing we will be hosting a second open mic stage run by our members which anyone will be able to register for (details to come after Easter). There will be pop up performances and other activities, as well as a BBQ and beverages available – it will be quite a festival atmosphere!
