Brecon Choir Festival 2025

Unforgettable choral experiences. The heart of Wales.

Welcome to the Brecon Choir Festival. We look forward to welcoming you to the heart of Wales this July.

We are excited to announce the first of our acts for 2025 including BBC National Chorus of Wales, The King’s Men Cambridge and Pendyrus Male Choir. We will be adding more events to the programme over the coming weeks and months.

Our 2025 festival theme is “R.S. Thomas: Music, Man…Machine.” Through new commissions, thought-provoking talks, and excursions, we will explore the works of the great Welsh religious poet as a source of inspiration for composers. Together, we’ll examine what his poetry and choral music can offer in a world increasingly shaped by technology.

We’ll see you in the summer.
