Welcome to a Commonwealth Carnival of Music

A COMMONWEALTH CARNIVAL FOR THE DIAMOND JUBILEE

The Commonwealth Carnival of Music, a spectacle of music and dance with a Commonwealth theme, took place in Westminster Hall - inside the Houses of Parliament - on Monday 2nd July 2012 as part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations for Her Majesty The Queen.

This wonderful event was the result of a collaboration between diverse groups of volunteers, performers and sponsors and was staged in association with the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (UK Branch) and Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod. 

Combining the spirit of the Llangollen International Music Eisteddfod with the Commonwealth Connecting Cultures theme for 2012, choirs and dancers representing all corners of the Commonwealth performed in front of a 1200 strong audience made up of aspiring young performers, unsung heroes and  representatives of various community and charity groups  from all over the United Kingdom and beyond.
