On Saturday 24th April Red Leicester Choir and Greenshoots Ceilidh Orchestra will be joining forces again to raise money for the Red Cross’ appeal for Haiti. Last year’s ceilidh was great fun (and the hall has fabulous acoustics!). Come along for food, a performance by the choir, and of course plenty of dancing. 7.30pm, Ukrainian Hall, Fosse Road South, Leicester. Ticket prices TBA.

On Saturday 13th March Red Leicester will be performing the song ‘Greensleeves’ at the Space Centre in Leicester, as part of the event ‘From Archery to Armada: Bringing history to life in the Space Centre’, in aid of the Lord Mayor’s Appeal, organised by the Society for Intercultural Understanding Leicester (SICUL). 6.30pm, National Space Centre, Exploration Drive, Leicester LE4 5NS. Tickets cost £25 including a meal.

A fair few of us will be travelling up to Bradford this weekend to enjoy Raise Your Banners Festival of Political Song. Lots of concerts, a book fair, singing at the Cenotaph, workshops and of course our own seven-minute performance slot await us!

Red Leicester will be singing in the afternoon concert on Saturday the 7th of November, which starts at 1pm in Bradford Cathedral. Tickets cost £5. If you’re in the area or performing in another choir that day, we’d love to see you.
