The Choir is singing regularly at Brumbies home games, our annual concerts and other events in and around Canberra and at memorial services in Bungendore as well as at the Australian War Memorial. We continue our association with the Male Choirs Association of Australia with the next concert at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in May 2025. With the British Lions visiting in 2025, we are also preparing to sing with their choir in August 2025 at the Sydney Opera House.
