Young singers and musicians from across Stoke-on-Trent will showcase their talents at a series of festive concerts returning to Victoria Hall this December.

Organised by the City Music Service, the performances will bring together hundreds of children and young people from local schools, alongside talented musicians from the service's ensembles.

The City Songbirds at Christmas concerts will take place on Wednesday 2 and Thursday 3 December, featuring pupils from the City Songbirds schools alongside City Music Service ensembles.

Meanwhile, City Voices at Christmas will take place on Monday 7 December, celebrating the musical talents of young singers from across the city.

The concerts offer young performers the opportunity to take to the stage at one of Stoke-on-Trent's best-known entertainment venues, sharing their musical achievements with family, friends and the wider community.

The City Music Service works with schools across the city to provide musical opportunities for thousands of young people, helping them develop their skills and confidence through singing, playing instruments and performing together.

The City Songbirds concerts begin at 6.45pm on 2 and 3 December, with City Voices at Christmas taking place at 6.45pm on 7 December.

All three performances will be held at Victoria Hall in Hanley.

Tickets are available through ATG Tickets. For further information about the City Music Service, visit its website.
