A mass community singing of the Cornish anthem every St Piran's Day March 5th

Are you ready for the Trelawny Shout 2024?

There is only one acceptable answer to the question. YES, of course you are! Join thousands of other voices in Cornwall and beyond at 9pm on St Piran’s Day and sing out your heartfelt thanks for being lucky enough to belong to a such a cracking community!

How It Works

It’s a very simple idea. A community network gets together – a pub, a club, a local choir, a few strong singers, perhaps a local charity – to sing the iconic Cornish anthem Trelawny on St Piran’s Day at 9pm. The song is sung, the charity pot may be filled and Cornwall raises its celebratory voice as the collective heart is warmed!

Our Facebook page is a lively place. Call it Trelawny Shout HQ – a place where pubs, clubs and communities come to declare themselves IN. Choirs pop by to offer to lead the singing in towns and villages all over Cornwall, individuals drop in to share Trelawny Shout news and info and generally share the love. See you there 💛🖤

Time to warm your voice up

Whether you’re a choir, a fundraiser or just love a good sing-song with others, we want you on board!
You know the song Trelawny, right? But do you know its official title? The lyrics to The Song of the Western Men can easily be found online, as can any number of renditions.
Get practising for March 5th (but not many of us are ever word perfect, and that doesn’t matter a bit).

Who's behind the Trelawny Shout?

One and All! The tradition of ‘shouts’ – or informal singing ‘in the round’ in pubs – has happened in Cornwall for centuries.

They’re popping up all around the county, if you don’t see one in a pub near you – set one up!

Some thanks to our supporters

Support comes in all shapes and sizes. Schedules permitting, BBC Radio Cornwall broadcasts a live shout at 9pm so people at home can join in.

Funding in the past has come from FEAST Cornwall too – we couldn’t have met the 2020 challenge to raise 20,000 voices or made 2021’s lockdown video without it.

A big thank you to Venn Creative too for designing and building this website out of the kindest of their community hearts and long being committed supporters of the Trelawny Shout and all things Cornish.

Cornwall’s breweries and pub suppliers often come forward with discounted beer or donated pasties – if you’re putting on a charity event, it’s always worth asking.

If you think you can help, please get in touch!
