The next festival is going to be the best yet, with some great concerts and events planned throughout the five days.

Although still 18 months away, we are planning in 2017 to host the finest collection of Male Choirs ever assembled in a Festival.

Choir numbers will be limited for this festival and, as application demand is sure to be very high, it is recommended that Choirs register a.s.a.p. to avoid disappointment.
