Award-winning CF1 Choir are to perform in Barry as part of the 2025 Barry Arts Festival on Friday 7th November.
The concert, at Barry’s St Helen’s Church, will take place at 7:30pm on Friday, 7th November.
Earlier this year, CF1 were named ‘Choir of the Festival’ at the 2025 National Eisteddfod, and have been on tour around Wales recently with the legendary Max Boyce.
The performance will include a range of styles and genres, from show choir to gospel and from classical to contemporary.
The concert also features Welsh soprano, Ffion Thomas from Crymych, who is studying at the Royal Academy of Music in London.
Ffion has a sparkling lyric soprano voice and has had many concert and competition successes.
Barry Arts Festival organiser, Dot Connell, said: “I am looking forward to hearing CF1, one of the UK’s most entertaining and established ensembles, and a choir invited to perform in India, USA and regularly visits Europe to perform.
“They were the Choir of the Festival at the 2025 National Eisteddfod, won at the Hull International Festival earlier this year and were Choir of the World at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod in 2022.
“This will be an excellent evening, with one of Wales’s best choirs, performing here in Barry.
“I would like to thank Barry Town Council and Newydd for their continued support for the Barry Arts Festival.”
Concert tickets are available at £10 for adults, free for under-16s at the event, or can be secured in advance from https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/barry-arts-festival/
