Main Auditorium

We are delighted to announce that Sing2026 will take place in Harrogate over the last May Bank Holiday weekend of 2026 – and this year, our flagship event will see a refreshed format designed to reflect member feedback, enhance the experience, and ensure long-term sustainability.

What’s New in 2026:

A two-day format: Running from Saturday morning through to late Sunday, with Bank Holiday Monday left free for travel.

Saturday – Chorus Contests: Male and Mixed Choruses will each compete as separate contests with separate awards, but all groups will be scheduled across the same day to guarantee fuller audiences and a compact, vibrant programme.

Sunday – Quartet Contests: Semi-finals in the morning and Finals in the afternoon, ensuring a bigger, more supportive audience for all performers.

Shows and Social Highlights: The ever-popular Saturday Show and Sunday Afterglow/Open Mic remain centrepieces of the weekend, offering more opportunities to celebrate and sing together.

Optional Friday Activity: For those arriving early, we are exploring a relaxed social singing or welcome event, hosted in the team hotel or a nearby venue if demand is sufficient.

PLEASE NOTE: The Royal Hall and Harrogate Convention Centre are able to accept card and contactless payments only.
