Black Dyke and Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus Christmas concert
Another Christmas treat – Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus’ annual carol concert with the world famous Black Dyke Band, presented by BBC Look North’s Amy Garcia.
Join the throngs who take time time out from the hustle and bustle of all the Christmas preparations – from shopping and wrapping, to decorating and card writing – to take part in this sparkling seasonal celebration. Tickets sell very quickly and last year was a near sell out, so book as soon as you can for an afternoon filled with carols for choir, audience singalongs and musical gems for the band. The programme will include Sleigh Ride, The Holly and the Ivy, Zither Carol, Christian’s Awake, Shepherd’s Pipe Carol and O Holy Night as well as the popular songs beloved by many.
Audience members can sing along using the programmes available in the foyer (cash only) or at the bars (card or cash).

Feedback comments from last year included:
- “Feedback from my family was that they still loved O Holy Night the most but had really enjoyed the programme, especially the stamping and clicking! and found it all very uplifting. Perfect for setting the scene for Christmas.”
- “Well done everyone – beautiful singing and an interesting and varied programme. Christmas has officially started.”
- “My first visit to one of your concerts, flawless singing, not one false entry, powerful and uplifting, can’t wait for next Christmas!”
