Before you go
Is this free to attend?
Sing, Strum and Giggle is listed as free to attend. You may need to register a place. Check the link in the planning panel before you go.
Do we need to book a place?
Check the Esplanade listing for Sing, Strum and Giggle before you go. This kind of music-led session at the Concourse is popular, and a reservation may be needed even when the performance is free.
How long is the performance?
The session runs for around 30 minutes. The mix of singing, live strumming and audience participation moments keeps the pace moving, which suits the shorter attention spans of younger children.
What ages is the programme intended for?
The programme is open to all ages. The combination of live strumming, familiar songs and call-and-response moments makes it a natural fit for children in the 3 to 7 range, though older siblings often find themselves joining in too.
Is this right for our ages?
This event is listed for 0 months to 18 years. If your child is outside this range, check with the organiser before attending.
