Nelson Civic Choir is a non-audition, community-based choir that is one of the oldest in the country.

About us
We celebrated our 160th anniversary in 2020. In 1988 the choir acquired its present name, reflecting its place in the community.

We are proud to offer young people the opportunity to participate in major choral productions, both enhancing their experience and increasing their confidence in performance.
