So once the excitement of Christmas and New Year is over, what's going to get you through those long dark nights until spring arrives?   Lace City Chorus would like to invite you to join us for an unforgettable experience of barbershop music, friendship and fun!  Why not do something for you this January, and experience the joy of singing in acapella 4 part harmony, with a group of inclusive and supportive women.

Whether you would be interested in joining us for the future, or would just like to chase away the winter blues in the company of uplifting women, if you are over the age of 14 and comfortable singing somewhere in the SSAA range, why not come along?

No experience necessary, you don’t have to read music, no booking required – just turn up!

Your last chance to come and support us before we head off to Sweet Adelines International Convention in Kansas City - don't miss it!

Can you help us with our fundraising efforts, to help reduce the cost of travel overseas, and to help as many of these amazing women and girls as possible to represent Nottinghamshire in the world championships of barbershop?

On Saturday 29th July about 40 members of Lace City Chorus had the honour of performing to the crowds at Nottingham Pride.  This was the first time the Chorus has performed at Pride and thoroughly enjoyed being part of this important and joyful event.

We sang a selection of songs from the repertoire, including a "Firework" medley, "One Day Like This" and finished with "This is Me" from the Greatest Showman with backing from onstage drummers.   Some chorus members joined the march with friends, family or their employer; others enjoyed watching as the vibrant, loud and colourful march went past.   It was the perfect day for it - the sun was shining, the crowds were amazing and the chorus were delighted to share in the joy of the occasion. 

Come and see Lace City Chorus perform in a celebration of barbershop a cappella.

With special guests from our learn to sing course as well as Notivation Quartet and the Major Oak Chorus.

Earlier this month, we won gold at the women’s barbershop championships earning us the title of the UK and Netherlands champions. The medal also means that we will represent the UK at the international contest in America next year.
