VFMC — Welcome to the VFMC

VFMC are delighted to be transitioning back to live events in halls. We will carefully follow all government health directives including limiting attendance to fully vaccinated people, and limiting numbers according to density limits. Please check event details on this web site before attending in person. We will update details of specific events as quickly as possible.

We anticipate that some people will remain cautious about attending public events. We will continue to support our audiences and participants as best we can by continuing Zoom on-line access to our events while there is demand. We recognise that this is only a second best option. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.

COVID-19 Arrangements

The VFMC Committee is regularly updating COVID-19 arrangments in line with current government rules and guidelines. We are especially mindful that many of our members and event patrons are concerned about risks of infection. We endeavour to strike a balance between these concerns and the prevailing practices in the community generally. Additional specific details may be found on both the Concerts and Dance pages
