After two years of meeting online, we are really looking forward to being together in person for the Mothers’ Union Annual Gathering 2022 at the Waterfront Hall, part of the International Convention Centre (ICC) in the wonderful city of Belfast. The event takes place on Saturday 24th September 2022, with a celebration service to be held the day before (23rd September 2022).

We are also delighted that from 7.30 - 8.45pm on the evening of Saturday 24th we will be entertained by the Clare Chorale. Playing at events across Ireland and Scotland, the 50 strong choir promises a mixture of music ranging from traditional to modern. We are incredibly lucky to have secured this group for what promises to be an exceptional concert.

A detailed conference pack is available from the Mothers' Union website to help you plan your trip, provide more event information and also contains the booking form and contact details to secure your tickets to the Celebration service: https://www.mothersunion.org/get-involved/events

Tickets

Tickets for the Annual Gathering 2022 are £15.

We are pleased to offer a ticket to the evening concert for just £10, when purchased in combination with the Annual Gathering ticket.

This means you can attend the Annual Gathering and evening concert for just £25. Do consider supporting both events - it is rare to have a venue as impressive as this with such a sought-after musical ensemble. We are keen that members are able to make the very most of it!

Due to the popularity of Clare Chorale, we will be selling additional evening tickets to the general public, these will cost £15 and will be sold through the following link: https://eveningconcert.eventbrite.co.uk. By buying a combined ticket you will save £5 compared to buying separate tickets.

Seating

You will be assigned a numbered seat for the Annual Gathering, it is not possible for us to amend and change these. The evening concert will be free seating (first come first serve basis). Your seat allocation is only valid for the day event.
