First, at 7pm, the choirs will entertain you with a selection of songs old and new.

There will be a bar, pasties and a raffle. Don't miss it! |
 | SONGS OF PRAISE IN POLRUAN22 Jun 2025 6.30 Soon after formation more than 100 years ago, the choir of the Polperro Fishermen was attracting huge congregations to their Harvest of the Sea services, mainly because of their fellow fisherman and inspirational lay preacher, Tommy Mark, who became known as the Fishermen’s Bishop. Still based in the Polperro chapel where it was formed in 1923, Polperro Fishermen's Choir will be singing on Polruan's Old Coal Wharf on Sunday 22nd June. The event is free and all are welcome. (It will be in St Saviour's Church if wet.) |
 | FREE CONCERTS IN POLPERROFrom 2 Jul 2025 to 3 Sep 2025 7pm As always during the summer, the choir will be 'at home' in Polperro for their famous free summer concerts on selected Wednesdays, helping to raise large sums of money for charity. The concerts will be in the open-air by Polperro Fish Quay or in Polperro Methodist Chapel if it's wet, cold or dark. The first is on 2nd July, followed by 16th July, 13th and 27th August and 3rd September, all Wednesdays. The Wreckers will be singing nearby afterwards - just follow us! |
 | SINGING FOR LOOE RNLI8 Jul 2025 7.30pm The choir will be singing in Looe RNLI boathouse at 7.30pm on Tuesday 8th July. The concert is FREE and seating is available. Having had a concert slightly delayed by a 'shout' in the past, we should remind you that all the concerts are subject to any necessary RNLI operational decisions and precautions. As the RNLI is one of our favourite charities, please help us support their essential service with a donation. We'll be singing there again on 5th August so we hope you'll come and join us. We love to entertain! |
 | IN LOOE FOR CARNIVAL WEEK31 Jul 2025 8pm It's Looe carnival week so what better way to spend the Thursday evening of Looe Carnival week than listening to Polperro Fishermen's Choir singing a range of popular songs in Looe lifeboat house from 8pm, after the Looe Ukulele Extravaganza at 6.30pm. You'll enjoy a fun range of good music, the acoustics are great and seating is available. It's all FREE but - be warned! - there may be some very scary Lions around trying to blag some money from you! Come and join us. We love to entertain! |
