Following the sunny sell-out success in 2023, we’ve decided to do it again.

This singing weekend will be co-led by Bruce Knight and Roxane Smith. It will be a wonderful weekend of rich harmonies and an opportunity to get to know new friends and singers.

Most people will be camping/camper-vanning or glamping on the field and a few staying in local B & Bs.
See below for more info on the glamping options (just one left now)

Either way, we’ll have ample opportunity to enjoy the river, the trees, the cosy welsh hills and the protective resonant barn.
The best thing about singing in the Barn is that protects us from rain and shine but makes us feel like we are very much part of the nature around us.

Roxane has been leading ‘Singing in Nature’ weekends at Camp Plas since September 2020.  Bruce has taught with Roxane at Camp Plas several times and is organising this year’s event (giving Roxane a break from the admin).
We’re keen to make everyone feel welcome and as comfortable as possible while singing in the ‘outdoors’.

Well behaved dogs are welcome to this event.
