Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus and London Gay Men’s Chorus join forces to celebrate Brighton Pride in style.
The two largest gay men’s choirs in the country will perform their concert, London To Brighton on Friday, August 5 at All Saints Church in Hove.
As part of their 25th Anniversary Tour the London Chorus is coming to the seaside on the night before Brighton Pride to celebrate in song and solidarity our musical heritage. Whether they come by train, bike or classic car this promises to be the trip of a lifetime.
BrightonGMC Chairman Paul Charlton said: “Brighton Pride’s campaign for 2016 is Uniting Nations and, after the tragic hate crime on the LGBT community in Orlando, it will be an opportunity to stand shoulder to shoulder with our brothers in song to highlight, if there was ever a more poignant time to do so, why Pride is still relevant. Relevant and necessary because, despite the long way we have come, there is still much to do within our own communities and across the world.
London Gay Men’s Chorus is the oldest and largest gay men’s chorus in Europe. It’s been few years since we shared the same stage and, if the audience reaction is even a fraction of our last collaboration, London To Brighton is going to be an evening that you don’t want to miss.”
The show will also support and help raise awareness and funds for the newly created local organisation Sleep Safe, which aims to end homelessness within the Brighton and Hove LGBT community. Also, £1 from each ticket sold will be donated directly to the Rainbow Fund, a Brighton and Hove based grant-giving fund for local LGBT and HIV/AIDS organisations.
