How do I get involved in the festival?Send us an email at this link– director@choralfestival.gg There are plenty of ways to get involved in the festival, whether it be performing, volunteering, or administration. We are looking for choirs of all interests and abilities to take part in the festival programme.
-
My choir isn’t classical. Can I still be involved?Yes! Times are changing. Choral doesn’t mean classical, so forget neat rows and hymn sheets. Singing in a choir is about sharing a passion for music making with like-minded friends, and we want choirs of all styles and genres to showcase what choral singing means to them.
-
I have always wanted to try singing in a choir. Is there anything for me?You are very welcome to take part in our Come-And-Sing events during the festival. Keep an eye on the latest information on the website about where, when and what to do. We want everyone to experience singing in a choir!
-
Do I need to pay to sing in the festival?Most events are free, but some workshops will be ticketed. We warmly encourage you to donate after our free events to help us cover the costs of running the charity and supporting the island's choral community.
-
Does my choir have to sing on stage?There are numerous venues across the island that might suit your choir better than the concert stage. Churches with choirs are encouraged to consider events at their space, and community choirs may choose to sing at a venue in which they feel most comfortable. St James has an amazing set up for both classical and pop, so if there is anything you need (like a sound system or backing band) do get in touch to let us know.

Guernsey Choral Festival is a registered charity. Where does the money raised go?We rely on donations and ticket sales to keep the Guernsey Choral Festival running each year. We are a registered charity and all the money raised stays within the festival and is used to support education platforms and community outreach projects on the island, as well as creating performance opportunities for local choirs.
