2026 London Landmarks Half Marathon Performance (on-book)

ON-BOOK: For this type of performance, you can use your music folders or IPads (never phones for performances). 

Though we highly recommend for you to be off-book, memorising the lyrics by practising with your harmony tracks as it results in a really enjoyable experience for you, the Musical Director and the audience watching. 

You've got this singers! : )

ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE:

We're thrilled to be performing at London's central half marathon that takes place through Westminster and the City.

The West End Musical Choir will be entertaining the runners and supporters! We will be performing at Dementia UK Charity's cheer point. This year, they have runners taking part in the event to raise money for their charity. As we are singing a number of times throughout the day, it will be great chance to become really familiar with the material!
