Here at Voice of the Town, our choirs have had a BRILLIANT start to 2025 after a fantastic year last year.
Yes, over the past year alone, we’ve performed at a variety of awesome festivals as well as public and private events. These have included performances for BBC Radio, Virgin Media O2 at the very cool Birmingham Library, Velux Windows at the stunning National Museum of Scotland (Edinburgh), for a festival at the magnificent Kelvingrove Bandstand (Glasgow), at the incredible Resorts World Arena (Birmingham) for the England Netball Grand Final. We then had our very own In The Mood shows at really fantastic theatres to packed audiences (be sure to check those out on our social media!).
We’ve also raised the roof at a host of brilliant festivals, including the Edinburgh Fringe, Gateshead Beer Festival, Newcastle Food & Drink Festival, Dinky Dub Festival (Northumberland) and VW Festival (Leeds). And we’re excited to be returning to some of those, and more, over the coming months, so watch this space for even more announcements.
Other opportunities over the past 2-3 years have seen our groups perform at everything from the Opening Ceremony of the Birmingham Commonwealth Games, to our Glasgow choir performing live on BBC, ITV and Sky TV ahead of the Scotland vs Ukraine international football match at Hampden Park AND on Mary Berry’s BBC One Christmas Special, which aired across the UK and United States in December 2023.
On top of that, we’ve performed at loads more festivals, weddings, charity events and gig venues while we also performed on all 5 of England Rugby player Joe Marler’s UK live show tour dates, which included shows at the iconic London Palladium, Manchester’s Stoller Hall, St. George’s in Bristol as well as the Birmingham and Glasgow Glee Clubs.
AND, with a really exciting few months of great rehearsals and tons of shows ahead (check out our Events page!), and with more dates to be added, we can’t wait to start our new terms from Monday, May 12th, onwards!
