FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is this only for With One Voice members?
No! Everyone is welcome – tell all your friends and family. We’re hoping it will be a good mix of singers from all over Melbourne, as well as some from our With One Voice family. The more the merrier!
Can I bring a friend?
Yes! So long as they purchase a ticket, anyone is welcome to join us for the day. No prior knowledge or experience needed!
Can I give a friend the WOV discount?
No, sorry. They will have to pay full price, or become a paying member of one of our choirs. Creativity Australia is subsidising all WOV members to attend, and the reduced ticket price barely covers the cost of catering and venue hire.
Do I need to be a good singer?
Nah! The key to sounding good is to first feel good about your singing. The key to feeling good is to forget all about sounding good and just have a good time! Just come along and have fun – you’ll love it!
Do you have a concession rate?
No, sorry. Our WOV member rate is already heavily subsidised by Creativity Australia, and we can’t afford any further discounts.
Is the venue wheelchair friendly?
Yes – we can cater to just about everyone at this terrific venue!
Do I have to pay online?
If you are fundamentally against online payments, we can sort out cash on the day, or a direct bank transfer. Contact sally@creativityaustralia.org.au to organise a different payment method.
Can you prepare an invoice for NDIS?
Yes – we are happy to assist with NDIS supported payments. Please contact sally@creativityaustralia.org.au so she can get all your details and prepare an invoice.
