Guess who is turning 40 in 2024?
Queensland Show Choir has been around for while, and whilst we started with a different name, the culture that makes Queensland Show Choir, More than great singing, has been with us all that time.
If you were involved with us in some of those earlier years, please get in contact with us. We are planning a great celebration and would love you to be part of it.
Queensland Show Choir gives kids, teenagers, young adults and not-so-young adults the chance to sing with others, improve their vocal ability and musicality, perform at events big and small, and become part of our friendly and supportive choir community.
At Queensland Show Choir, we love to sing. Our musical directors and artistic staff are well-respected professionals who love sharing their expertise. Our choreographer (or ‘choralographer’) gets us moving like we never knew we could! So, our members are always learning new skills – no matter what their age – and become more confident in themselves, and as performers, every day.
Many of the Queensland Show Choir ensembles are regularly asked to perform publicly – everywhere from suburban Christmas carol nights to conferences to presenting the annual Brisbane Sings concert at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre. We often play with a live band and guest artists. And we’ve even backed Australian hip hop band The Hilltop Hoods!
Of course, the best thing about joining the Queensland Show Choir is that sense of belonging – because as we sing and rehearse and perform and improve and laugh along with each other, we make lifelong friends.

David Kidd, former member of the Ten Tenors and former Queensland Youth Choir (Show Choir) member.
“Often people ask me the best way for a young person to improve their singing. Hands down, the best thing you can do – sometimes even better than private lessons – is sing in a choir. You get the musicality, you get that knowledge, you get to sing a variety of repertoire and you build up your efforts in a non-threatening environment”
Jodie, Vox Populus member.
"I just wanted to get back to doing something I loved. My first year the Singing Hoosiers came from the United States and my first concert was with them. I learnt a lot, met some great people and had a lot of fun.”
Liz, mother of a Queensland Young Voices singer
“They’re serious about singing, but not at the expense of having fun.”

Tania, mother of a Queensland Young Voices singer
