Eurovision: Ukrainian Children’s Choir joins Liverpool pupils for pop-up performances

100 pupils, representing secondary schools across Liverpool, were joined by the Ukrainian Children’s Choir to perform at pop-up venues and sites across the city.

Liverpool’s ambition is to programme attention-grabbing, impactful city region-wide activity which makes everyone feel part of this unique Eurovision experience.

From volunteers and community engagement, right through to education activities, an unrivalled culture festival and an iconic fan village location… this is a Eurovision like no other.  

Bringing their message of hope, belonging and togetherness, this young people’s choir performed a varied programme of familiar songs and introduced the audiences to the music of Ukraine,

EuroLearn, aimed at Early Years, Primary, Secondary and Special Education settings forms part of the host city offer and has been specially curated in collaboration with many partners across the Liverpool City Region including the choir.

Supported with funding from The National LotteryHeritage Fund, Department for Culture, Media & Sport, Spirit of 2012 and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, EuroLearn provides a unique opportunity for schools, and non-school educational settings, to celebrate all things Eurovision by taking part and delivering their own events. 

‘United by Music’ is the overarching theme that is interwoven throughout the ‘EuroLearn’ programme. The sub themes of welcome, home, sanctuary, belonging, loneliness, togetherness, hope, mental health & wellbeing, voice of the child and celebration of all things Eurovision ensures that the programme is both relevant and of value to schools and other educational and non-school settings. 

Resonate, Liverpool’s music education hub that is funded by The National Lottery, brought 100 Voices together to welcome delegates to the second day of the Eurovision conference taking place at Hope University. Following the performance at Hope they went on to Strawberry Fields, and finally culminating in the performance at The Eurovillage.
