Join Tori and Jamie on the 23rd December to watch Live At Christmas 2023 Broadcast!

Christmas Carols

For our second Live At Christmas concert we’re joining together all the things you love about a virtual choir with a live performance.

As well as learning a whole host of Christmas carols to sing on the night, you’ll be able to take part in a virtual choir recording of 'Joy To The World' that will be screened on the night. We will also be premiering the video from our September 2023 project, to be announced shortly.

The Christmas Project also includes invites to online events including a Global Social, Christmas Coffee Morning and Carol Singalongs and much more, to help you get into the festive spirit!

At the end of December, you can choose how you’d like to attend our final event of the year:

FAQs

  • Is there any recording for this project?

    This year, we will be choosing one of our Live at Christmas tracks to record and premiere at our live concert!

  • I'm unable to join the live rehearsals, can I watch them back later?

    Yes! All of our projects are streamed live to Youtube. You can join in live in Zoom or on Youtube and all rehearsals will be made available to watch back as many times as you like. (usually within 24 hours)

  • I'm coming to the concert - do I need to print a ticket?

    No. We are operating a ticketless admissions system for the concert, everyone who has purchased a live event ticket will have their name on our guest list on the door.

  • I bought access for online-only but can now come to the concert in person, can I upgrade my ticket?

    Yes, there will be the option to buy an in-person add-on in the project player once the project is live. Provided there are tickets still available, we will also offer upgrades on the door on the 22nd December. These will be priced at £10 when purchased on the day.

  • Can I buy tickets for my friends & family to attend the concert in London?

    Yes. More information will be released shortly. You will also be able to buy tickets on the door.

  • I've not sung in an in-person choir before and don't have much/any choir experience, can I still take part?

    Absolutely! However, be aware that this format includes more music than previous projects, some simple carols, some from past projects and some that is yet to be chosen. With only 1 month until the event it may pose a challenge to some to learn all the pieces in that time.
    HOWEVER,
    the event is an online stream and concert, if you wish to simply attend as an audience member, you are more than welcome to do so!

  • Do I need to be an SAHC Subscriber to join this project?

    No you don't! Anyone can join this project at any time while the project is open. Subscribers have access to additional workshop content separate from our regular projects; and also receive a 20% discount on all projects. See this page for more information.
