The Cardiff Video Game Orchestra was founded
in 2024 by Alex Tompkins.
We are a community orchestra who play lots of video game music (and sometimes
go to the pub!) We welcome players from all backgrounds and are here to
provide and enjoy an inclusive creative space.
We rehearse every Monday in Cathays Community Centre - a fantastic facility that
welcomes us warmly and held our first ever concert.
Our past musical endeavours have covered games like Xenoblade Chronicles,
Octopath Traveller and Stardew Valley.
Upcoming Concert
Saturday 22nd November, 7pm doors, 7:30pm start.
Cathays Methodist Church
We will be rocking some bangers such as:
Lumière from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Mass Effect Medley
Stardew Valley Medley
Tickets £10/£5 in advance or on the door. Cash and card accepted.
There will be cake and refreshments available in the interval.
Join us?
We would love to have you!
We are currently recruiting for all instruments,
but we are particularly keen for bowed string players. No audition necessary!
We welcome all people from all backgrounds, whether you are in College, University or working professionally!
We rehearse every Monday in Cathays Community Centre at 7:15pm - 9:15pm.
We are an LGBTQIA+ and neurodiversity-friendly space, as many of us are part
of one or both of these communities. Our rehearsal space and all concert
venues are wheelchair-accessible.
