The Choir sings regularly at Brumbies home games, our annual concerts, at community events in and around Canberra, and at memorial services in Bungendore and at the Australian War Memorial. We continue our association with the Male Choirs Association of Australia and are looking forward to the next MCAA Festival in Perth in 2028.

30th Anniversary Concert
Australian Rugby Choir presents its 30th Anniversary Concert
Tickets available at: stagecenta.com/showid/9597/theatreid/2901/ShowdetailsC.aspx
The Australian Rugby Choir ('ARC') was formed in 1996 to sing at ACT Brumbies Rugby home matches on commencement of the southern hemisphere Super Rugby competition. Today the choir performs widely at community, ceremonial and sporting events in and around the ACT, with 2026 performances at the ACT Multicultural Festival, Anzac Day at Bungendore, Brumbies home games, Light Up Lyneham festival, and Floriade. In 2024 the choir sang the national anthem at the Australia/Wales rugby test in Sydney, and in 2025 performed a joint concert with the touring British & Irish Lions Choir in the Sydney Opera House.
The ARC is excited to present its 30th Anniversary Concert, the latest in a series of regular major concerts dating back to 2005. The concert will feature a mix of traditional and contemporary repertoire, sung in four part male voice which provides a rich and harmonious sound.
Come along and experience this truly wonderful afternoon of song, followed by afternoon tea.
