Concert events and tickets for our 2019/2020 season are as follows:

 Venues

  

Most of our concerts are held at Eye Parish Church, regarded as one of the grandest in Suffolk, not only on the outside, but also with regards to the treasures within. The rood screen that the choir performs in front of is something to behold, being described as “easily the best 20th Century work in Suffolk”, and which has been the subject of an extensive restoration process. The Choir rehearses in Eye Primary School on Friday evenings adjacent to the Church, and holds its post concert entertaining for the audience, Friends, members of the Choir and Orchestra in the School Hall. We also perform in the lofty Italianate and newly refurbished Eye Town Hall in our Christmas and Summer Concerts. There is plenty of parking for concerts as follows:

  • In the town car park at Cross Street (IP23 7AB) adjacent to the Queens Head pub in the middle of town, about 8 minutes walk from the Church
  • At the public car park at Buckshorne Lane off Church Street (IP23 7AZ), about 3 minutes walk from the Church
  • On street parking with residents in Church Street

For concerts at the Town Hall, the Cross Street car park would be the nearest.

Tickets

Tickets are presently sold at Eye Pharmacy, and also directly from our Ticket Manager, a choir member, from about a month before a concert. Tickets are normally available for purchase on the door too, although it is advisable to check in advance for availability.  Our Ticket Manager can be emailed direct at Ticket Manager.

There is full disabled access from the front entrance for wheelchair users. The Town Hall holds seating for an audience of 168. This incorporates two areas of seating either side of a central aisle, with all seat numbers being Unreserved. There is full disabled access from the front entrance for wheelchair users.

We rehearse each Friday during the school term from September until May at Eye Primary School next to the church between 7.45 pm. and 9.45 pm, with a sociable coffee in the middle, and refreshments at the pub afterwards. Singing on a Friday night sets us up for the weekend nicely.
