Harrogate Choir Festival to take place this weekend
Harrogate Choir Festival will take place this Saturday (April 13).
Eight choirs are preparing to participate in this year’s festival at the Royal Hall in Harrogate.
The event showcases choirs from Harrogate and the surrounding area. During the evening, each choir will perform songs of their choice before coming together on stage for a finale.
The choirs taking part are The Stray Notes, The Daytones, Harrogate Male Voice Choir, Knot Another Choir, Love Pop Choir, St John Fisher’s Junior School Choir, The Skipton Choir and Yorkshire Voices.

The first choir festival took place last year at Harrogate Theatre. The event is moving the larger Royal Hall this year to enable more choirs to take part. There are also plans to add a matinee performance next year.
The festival is being hosted by The Stray Notes, a Harrogate-based community choir, and is the brainchild of its musical director, Elizabeth Linfoot.
