THE DAWSON CHORUS

We are a pop choir based in Dublin City Centre.

We formed in September 2024. We have 90 members and sing as a four-part choir.

We are a community choir, non-audition, non-religious and we sing popular music. Our choir exists to share the joy of music both together and with our audiences.

In November 2024 we had our first ever public performance on the balcony of Bewley's Café on Grafton Street. Since then we have performed at many locations around the city including Leinster House, The Unitarian Church, The Royal College of Physicians and the St Patrick's Festival.

We have held two official concerts, most recently in March 2026 with two sold-out shows at St Ann's Church on Dawson Street.

If you are here because of TikTok, then yes, we are the choir that sing the 90s dance songs! In April and May 2026 videos from our concert went viral on TikTok with millions of people around the world watching us sing 90s dance songs like Freed From Desire by Gala, Rhythm Is A Dancer by Snap, and What Is Love by Haddaway!
If you are in Ireland, we also sang Maniac 2000 by Mark McCabe 😉.

You can find us on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
