It’s Barnsley Youth Choir week and we couldn’t be more excited!🎶
Have you got your tickets yet? 👉🏻 https://greyfriarskirk.com/events/illuminate-barnsley-youth-choir/

Here’s the Development and Senior Choirs on stage
at Greyfriars Kirk. A wonderful sight…. And we have another 80 Children’s Choir members to add.

It’s so good to be back at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe!

Shows at 2pm and 5pm tomorrow (both 1 hour long)

Whilst ticket sales are very healthy and bigger than we’ve ever had, it’s a really big venue so there’s tickets available on the door.

It feels strange to say this, but….

Come and see the double World Champions at the Fringe!
