Crystal Palace Carols II
Everybody loves a sequel right? Well as there's no Monday choir we're returning to the Crystal Palace for another sing instead. If you're all sung out this Christmas don't worry, it'll only be a small group, so no pressure, but sign up coming asap.
LOCATION
22 Dec 2025, 18:00 – 20:00
The Crystal Palace Pub, Station Rd, Berkhamsted HP4 2EZ, UK
EVENT INFO
OVERVIEW
Very relaxed informal sing at the pub for our final Monday of the year. This will be in aid of the Canal Riverside trust charity, who'll be there with buckets and leaflets on the night. We'll be singing indoors. It may be a bit similar to the pub sing at the King Charles in that we'll sing our usual carols / Xmas hits, but may blag a few fun ones too. Maximum 30 singers.
TIMINGS
5.50pm Call time (No need to arrive before this)
6:00pm Singing
Evening will be done by 8pm.
DRESS CODE
Casual, Christmas!

If the night feels informal enough we may dip into our back catalogue too (Folders welcome and I'll have spare lyrics), but as always if there are any songs you don't know you can just step aside and listen. I'll only do this if it feels more like a singalong than a gig!
GUESTS
It's a public event so family and friends welcome, but obviously not a massive pub, so you might want to book first if you want a table!
THANK YOU
For singers at this one, you will receive a thank you voucher from the pub for spending in January!! (Max 30 singers)
