In the anniversary year of the Swiss Paediatric Oncology Group (SPOG), a special musical event will take place on Saturday, 25 April 2026: five choirs will perform a joint benefit concert in support of childhood cancer research at the French Church in Bern.
The concert begins at 5:00 PM (doors open at 4:30 PM) and offers a varied programme featuring songs from different cultures and musical traditions. Five choirs from the region will take to the stage:
- Chiao-Ai Chor
- Chor BOLLITT’o misto
- Dreif-Gospelchor
- Jodlerklub Maiglöggli Jegenstorf

All performers are volunteering their time. Admission is free; a collection in support of childhood cancer research will be taken during the concert.
