🎄Join us for our 20th year of TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS CAROL SINGALONG IN STATIONERS PARK, N8.
One of Crouch End/Hornsey's best- loved festive traditions.
Free entry (no ticket needed)
******************************************************************
Join friends, family and neighbours in traditional seasonal song at our annual outdoor singalong.
What started as a random gathering of parents and toddlers in the dark years ago has become a well-loved local tradition, now with the addition of some lighting and the park's resident cafe selling festive refreshments to warm your vocal cords.
Led by vocal director, Heather Maîr Thomas and her "pop-up" Christmas choir, we sing an hour of all the traditional carols in various harmonies and languages.
The event has evolved its own traditions over the years. For example...
*Away in a Manger: We encourage the children to come forward and sing "Away in a Manger" by themselves (it’s gorgeous!)
*Silent night: To be sung in any language you know. (Previous languages heard have included Klingon and Cornish)
*While Shepherds Watched Sung to the tune "Lyngham" traditionally sung in Cornwall, (because Heather, our musical director is always homesick for Cornish harbourside carolling…)

Bring a head torch/phone/fairy lights - it gets very dark!
The Christmas choir consists of volunteer singers in festive hats, assembled from various singing and friendship groups.
We lead from the front to encourage everyone to sing with gusto, providing descants and harmonies.
We try to rehearse in advance.
If you are interested in joining the Pop-Up choir and have a festive hat, please contact [email protected] for rehearsal schedule and music.
We also appreciate offers of help to publicise the event and to help tidy up afterwards!
It is run by a handful of willing volunteers, and we are happy to have more!
Cash donations to the Friends of Stationers Park make this event possible.
