About us

For over 70 years, Jersey Festival Choir has been bringing the world's greatest choral music to audiences across the Island.

Founded in 1956 following a landmark performance of Handel's Messiah, the choir was established with a simple purpose: to perform the great masterpieces of the choral repertoire. That tradition continues today through performances of works by composers including Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Brahms and many more.

​

Open to singers of all ages and abilities, Jersey Festival Choir is a friendly and welcoming community brought together by a shared love of music. Whether you're an experienced chorister or looking to sing with a choir for the first time, you'll find a warm welcome.

​

Each year, the choir presents a major spring concert alongside its much-loved Festival of Carols, continuing a proud musical tradition that has become an important part of Jersey's cultural life.
