Due to the very sad demise of the Welcome Inn Hotel, the Mayo Male Voice Choir committee members were left scratching their heads (and many don’t have much on top to scratch!) as to where to find a venue at short notice for their Annual Spring Concert. The date had been selected and the ever popular Sean Costello, tenor, and the equally popular Frank Forde, compere, were invited to keep the night free on their diaries. After much deliberation and suggestions the choir have finally settled on a date change in order to avail of the excellent facilities of Breaffy House Hotel, the MMVC annual concert is now to be held on Thursday, April 28th at 8 pm.

For the Mayo Male Voice Choir, 2010 was a special year. It was their 10th anniversary, and they celebrated the occasion in style with a gala concert in the magnificent surroundings of the Royal Theatre, Castlebar. Such was the success of the night — with a very large crowd really enjoying the music and entertainment on offer — that the choir decided to hold this year’s Springtime Concert in the leading entertainment venue in the west of Ireland.
