Sunday - 27th UK Sacred Harp Convention at The Trinity Centre
Free (with a collection to cover event costs)

A event held at The Trinity Centre on Sunday 15th September. The event starts at 10:30.


Please join us for the 27th UK Sacred Harp Convention in Bristol! 

Sacred Harp singing is an unbroken 175-year-old tradition of powerful a capella music from the USA. The Convention is the biggest event of the year as a chance for people from around the country (and the world!) to join together in (extremely loud) song. Everyone is welcome to watch, listen and sing – no experience necessary!

We will be singing at the Trinity Centre 10am-4pm, with a social to the Stag and Hounds pub from 7.30pm onwards.

This is part of a whole weekend of singing. There is also a singing school on Friday and another full day of singing on Saturday!

If you've never tried Sacred Harp before we're holding singing schools on the 3rd and 10th September at Faithspace 7-9pm so that people can learn the basics ahead of the convention.

Covid policy: All attendees must take a Covid lateral flow test before they arrive each day, and bring a picture of the negative test (or the test itself).
