This will be the fifth international tour by MUCS, and by now the choir has firmly established the success of these events, and constantly demonstrated the quality of the touring experiences encountered by those lucky enough to attend. A tour in January 2026 will give a new generation of MUCS members (both recently joined and yet to join) the chance to participate, and after three years when few have been able to travel, will hopefully enable many of our returning members the chance to enjoy the experience of exploring amazing venues and places with a group of MUCS friends. For further information about the tour, PLEASE COMPLETE THE SURVEY (due for release early Feb 2025). A copy of the tour 2026 tour prospectus will be available early in 2025 and will be uploaded below in the download section (note this iscurrently showing the prospectus for the postponed 2023/24 UK only tour).
Proposed tour highlights:
Budapest - Krakow - Prague - Bratislava - Salzburg - Munich
