UCD Community Choir
About the choir
Following the success of a pop up choir event at the inaugural UCD Festival in 2016, the Community Choir was established as a UCD Equality, Diversity and Inclusion initiative to bring staff together from across Belfield's 330 acre campus. In 2018, the choir membership extended to staff of the Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business campus in Blackrock.
The choir is comprised of current and retired UCD staff and is a registered member of Sing Ireland. With a core group of 70-100 singers the Community Choir has become a much loved feature at many UCD events and International Conferences. The choir also participates in the annual Choirs for Cancer event and is directed by Ms. Caoimhe O’Neill, Principal and Director of Singing at Encore! School of Performing Arts.
