Be a Chorister for a Day

Be a Chorister for a Day

Do you know any young people, aged between 7 and 11, who enjoy singing? If so, ‘Be a chorister for a day’ is for them! It’s a unique and free opportunity for children with a love of singing to have a go at being a chorister. The day begins with workshops at 12noon, where they learn some of the music for choral evensong that day. The workshops are followed by lunch (people coming will need to bring their own packed lunch) and a chance to have a go at the Cathedral Explorer Trail before taking part in a rehearsal with the full Cathedral Choir.

Choose from Saturdays:
