Following the Annual Gathering, what better way to end the day than with an Evening Concert in the Waterfront Hall?
The Clare Chorale is a popular mixed voice choir based in Ballyclare, Co Antrim and will be performing a variety of musical items.
Under the baton of Sheelagh Greer, recently awarded the high profile ‘Women of Music’ title and a well established mezzo soprano, the Clare Chorale is renowned for high quality, enchanting and delightfully entertaining music and song. There are around 50 singers in the Chorale who regularly perform at concerts and church services, and have undertaken engagements across the island of Ireland and in Scotland.
For those buying an Annual Gathering ticket, you are able to buy your concert ticket at the same time and save £5 using this link. If any friends or family wish to come to the Evening Concert, tickets for this event only are bookable on a separate Eventbrite page here:
