Host a concert in your church

Music in Country Churches gives churches the opportunity to host musicians and ensembles of national and international repute, and raise money for the maintenance of your church building’s fabric.

There are 16,000 church buildings in England, Scotland, and Wales. All are in need of funds to keep the buildings in good repair and open for people to admire, explore, and pray in. Church buildings hold significance for regular worshippers as well as those from the wider community. They provide a focus for shared history and identity. Their monuments, fittings, and shape hold so much historical and cultural significance.

Churches were built with music in mind and nothing brings a building to life better than music. Organising a concert is great way to get people who would not ordinarily visit churches into a church building. Concerts can involve people from across your local village or town community.

You can help by hosting a Music in Country Churches concert. You’ll not only give your community a wonderful evening of music, but also be helping to raise awareness for your church building. Concerts bring together people with a diverse range of skills and experience, uniting them in a project with a common purpose and clear, achievable goal.

Your church would be featured in our annual concert series brochure and on our website. While you would be doing most of the work organising the concert, we will offer lots of support, promotion, not to mention excellent musicians. We’d love to hear from you and arrange a visit. In the first instance, please email us info@musicincountrychurches.org.uk.
