The Choristers of All Saints' Church

Be a Chorister Day 2024

Sunday 24th November 2024 at 1:00pm - 5:00pm


All Saints' Church, Northampton, invites boys and girls in years 3-6 for a day of fun, games, and singing.

Over the course of the afternoon, youngsters will have the chance to find out what it's like to be a chorister at All Saints'.

They'll meet the choir, learn some fun songs, play some games, and appear alongside the choir in a short concert at the end of the day.

Afterwards, there will be a chance for the parents to meet the music staff and existing choir parents, and to ask any questions.

Any child who has enjoyed the day and shows a spark will be offered the chance to formally audition for the choir. No previous experience is required, just a good singing voice and bags of enthusiasm.



THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL.

If you come to All Saints' on Sunday, I'm afraid we will not be able to let you in.

If your child is still interested in auditioning, please fill in the form below. You will be entered into our audition waiting list. Should spaces become available in 2025, we may be in touch.

The Knife Angel outside All Saints' Church Portico

Northampton Together Vigil

Friday 27th September 2024 at 7:00pm


The Northampton Together Vigil, held on the Portico of All Saints' Church in Northampton, are community events designed to bring people together in solidarity and reflection during times of crisis, mourning, or in celebration of unity. These vigils have become an important part of Northampton's collective response to significant local and national events, offering a space for people of all backgrounds to come together and support one another. Often led by local clergy and community leaders, the vigils include moments of silence, prayer, and speeches that promote healing, hope, and togetherness.

All Saints' Church, with its prominent location and historical significance, serves as an ideal setting for these vigils, reinforcing the town's commitment to unity and compassion. These events have become a powerful symbol of Northampton's resilience and dedication to supporting one another in difficult times.
