Please note: This is an archive of a past event

The Lea Singers’ annual Christmas Concert, FestiveLea, is an evening of uplifting singing and popular carols in Harpenden’s Eric Morecambe Centre.

With a selection of well-known carols for audience and choir interspersed with some beautiful (and occasionally silly) numbers for choir, this is the perfect start to your Christmas break.

We are delighted to be supporting The Harpenden Trust with the proceeds from the raffle.
