The first Pub Choir event outside of Brisbane was recently held on the Sunshine Coast, with over 300 people coming together to learn Paul Kelly’s ‘Dumb Things’.

Director and creator Astrid Jorgensen says the event on the Sunshine Coast was a test run to expand and take the phenomenon interstate with dates for an event in Hobart confirmed.

Ms Jorgensen says people come to the events because the pub is a comfortable place for people to enjoy singing loudly without judgement.
