These terrific concerts feature many of our region's very best singers providing stirring and heart-warming family entertainment that the Chorale's members have practiced and sweated over for months - and they do it all for local charities.

If you've never been to a South Burnett Chorale Christmas Concert before (or have always promised yourself that you would), then make this year the year you start Christmas the right way by enjoying the magic only a live performance can provide.
