World Choir Village at MARKET @ THE SHEDS

World Choir Games 2018

MARKET @ THE SHEDS is Pretoria's inner city social market showcasing local art, design, food and the best music. Usually taking place every last Saturday of each month, MARKET @ THE SHEDS will build a special meeting place for participants, residents and visitors during the World Choir Games: The official World Choir Village!

The Village will provide a vibey space within a safe environment where participants and visitors can eat, rest, replenish, socialize and even rehearse. It will be a showcase of local art, food, design, fashion and music and give our international guests a taste of the True Colours of the Capital.

There will be a great and varied selection of food to buy, as well as local art, design and craft stalls. An open stage and big screen will give visitors the opportunity to experience ad hoc music and choir performances (and some soccer!). There will be quieter pause areas, hall space that can be booked for rehearsals, a tourism information desk and official branded WCG merchandise. The Village will also be a central point between WCG venues and link with available transport. It will be safe and easy to access, taking place next to the University of Pretoria (Hellenic Society, C/O Lynwood and Roper Street, Brooklyn).

To make it easier for choir leaders and organisers, the Village will be providing a catering service to visiting choirs. All meals will be served at the World Choir Games Village and organisers can book the meals beforehand without concerns about the logistics of finding a place to eat.
