Portland Works, Randall Street, Sheffield S2 4SJ

This friendly, time-limited choir meets for 10 sessions every autumn. It’s open to all and takes place in The Makerspace at Portland Works. This is a 150- year -old industrial building and the birthplace of stainless steel. It’s still in use by local makers and craftspeople and is located in Little Sheffield, just behind London Rd. The Makerspace is the room where the buffer girls used to work and now it’s a beautifully restored space with lots of ventilation and good acoustics for singing.

Mondays 4.30-6.30pm autumn only

676 Chesterfield Road, Sheffield S8 0SD

Night Chorus (Sheffield) is a fun, friendly, informal community choir. We meet upstairs at The Boston Arms in Woodseats to sing pop, jazz and folk songs in 3 or 4 part harmony.

Everything is taught by ear and sung acapella – no previous singing experience is needed. The focus of the choir is enjoyment and singing for wellbeing, but we usually do one very informal ‘gig’ per term.

Sessions cost £5 per session and are payable in half-termly blocks.

Thursday evenings in term term from 8.30 to 9.15pm

Church Lane Community Centre, 38 Church Lane, Prestwich, Manchester

We are a small-ish but friendly group that has existed in one form or another since 2013. We don’t perform but we sing for the fun of it, a variety of songs in 2-, 3- or 4-part harmony. Everyone is welcome, no experience needed and no need to read music as everything is taught by ear.

We usually meet on the 3rd Sunday of the month* from 10am to 1pm, with a 30-minute tea break.

(*Please do check dates, as sessions sometimes take place on other Sundays for practical reasons.)

Cost: £15 for 3 hours (or pay what you can afford). To ensure the sustainability of the group, there is also an annual membership fee of £10, payable in January or February.

First session half price!
