Music Festival - The largest annual event in the South Island dedicated to developing young musical talent, the Festival inspires the children of Canterbury to participate at the highest level in musical performance, both vocal and instrumental, fostering a lifelong passion for music.

A huge amount of effort goes towards the preparation for this event. Today the choir have been at their final rehearsal before their performance tonight. Wishing the Choir and Miss Booth a fabulous night tonight!
