Croeso i VicWelsh!
Australia’s World Class Welsh Choir
Experience the Magic of Welsh Choral Tradition in Melbourne
Welcome to Victoria’s premier Welsh male voice choir, where the ancient traditions of Welsh choral music meet Australian excellence. For over four decades, we’ve been bringing the passionate, soul-stirring sounds of Welsh musical heritage (cerddoriaeth Gymreig) to audiences across Melbourne and beyond.
About Victoria Welsh Choir
We are Victoria Welsh Choir (VicWelsh for short), a traditional Welsh men’s choir.
- ♯ At least 25% of what we sing is in Welsh (it’s in our constitution) – often it’s a lot more
- ♯ We hold weekly Welsh pronunciation classes and have been complimented on our pronunciation by audiences in Wales
- ♯ Our appearances in the Welsh National Eisteddfod in 1999 and 2004 were the first by any ‘foreign’ Welsh choir since 1929
- ♯ We have joined other Welsh choirs at the Gymanfa Ganu Hymn Festivals held by the Welsh Church in Melbourne since our foundation
- ♯ We regularly organise tours interstate and to Wales where we sing with local choirs. In 2025 we toured Sri Lanka along with local Sri Lankan choir Euphony.
- ♯ Since we were founded by seven Welshmen in 1980, we have entertained thousands of people with quality performances, musicianship and humour.
Upcoming Victoria Welsh Performances
Join us as we bring the magic of Welsh choral music to venues throughout Melbourne and beyond. Our concert calendar features a diverse range of performances from intimate community events to grand collaborations with other musical ensembles. Our performances aren’t just concerts – they’re immersive cultural experiences filled with Welsh musical tradition, humorous commentary, and the unmistakable passion that has made us Victoria’s premier Welsh choir for over four decades.
