Loud & Proud were delighted to represent Scotland at Various Voices 2018 Munich, the 14th European LGBTI Choir Festival and ran from 9th to 13th May. Over 100 choirs with 2700 singers from 19 countries performed in the Gasteig in the centre of Munich. More information is available on the Various Voices website. Have a look at the Gallery page to see how we got on.

We raised money to take 30 members of the choir to Germany by running ceilidhs, sponsored swims and weigh-loss challenges, a car boot sale and proceeds from the Rainbow Assembly the joint concert we held with Edinburgh Gay Men’s Chorus at the end of April 2018. EGMC were also at Various Voices. A huge thank you to all of you who supported us either with your time or generously parting with your money.

As part of Loud & Proud’s fundraising efforts for our trip to Various Voices in Munich in May 2018, we will be busking for about half an hour at the Mercat Cross on the High Street on Tuesday 8 August at 5.30pm. Come and hear a taster of our Fringe Concert (19 August), and bring some cash with you.

Thursday 29 June 2017: we will be singing at the Church Hill Theatre as part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival at 7pm. If you have a ticket for that night, you’ll be in for an extra treat.

Saturday June 17. Choir members marched and sang together at Pride, under a new banner especially made for this year’s event. Have a look at these photos.
