This year, the Asia Tour will start in October, with the first stop in Hong Kong and then Singapore and Malaysia. Become our host families to show the warmest welcome and local culture to our lovely children.

Each host family needs to receive 1 adult and 1-2 children of the same gender, and the reception period is 8-9 days. The host family needs to provide bed and transportation arrangements, and arrange appropriate rest time according to the schedule. In addition to performances, the choir will also participate in other activities, and the pick-up time will be adjusted. Details will be announced at the briefing.

Hosting Periods (A total of 9 sessions / 90 host families needed)

We need a total of 90 host families across the following nine sessions. The first three sessions are priority choices, and we especially need help from families during these times:
