The concert is FREE and seating is available.

 | OPEN-AIR CONCERT IN POLPERRO10 Aug 2022 7.30pm The choir will again be 'at home' in Polperro for one of their famous free summer concerts, which we have been giving for well over 60 years, raising large sums of money for charity. This year the good causes are close to home with donations going to the 'Save Polperro Chapel' appeal and the choir's own music charity. The concerts will be in the open-air by Polperro Fish Quay (or in Polperro Methodist Chapel if it's wet or cold.) The Wreckers will be singing on Polperro Big Green afterwards, at about 9pm - follow us if you need directions! |
 | POLPERRO CHAPEL CONCERT31 Aug 2022 7.30pm As the summer season draws towards its close, there are two more free summer concerts to come in Polperro, both in Polperro Methodist Chapel. The first is on Wednesday 31st August at 7.30pm. The 'Save Polperro Chapel' appeal and the choir's own music charity are the good causes selected to benefit from our collecting buckets this year. The chapel has been home to the choir for nearly 100 years and we aim to keep both going for as long into the future. We hope you benefit from some good singing too! See you there. |
