We are delighted to announce ‘Bantam of the Opera’ will be performing pre-match ahead of our final home fixture of the season against Castleford Tigers on Thursday 3rd September (8:00pm kick off) at Bartercard Odsal Stadium. Bantam of the Opera is a 40-strong choir of passionate supporters of Bradford City A.F.C. proudly known as “the Bantams”. Formed by BBC Radio Leeds as part of Bradford UK City of Culture 2025, the choir has grown into an independent group performing at major events across the UK. Highlights include singing for King Charles III, appearing at BBC Sports Personality of the Year, performing at the League Managers Association Awards 2026 at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House London, and performing both Abide with Me and the National Anthem at the FA Cup Final 2026. Known for bringing together Bradford’s passion for music, performance and sport, Bantam of the Opera will take to the pitch ahead of kick-off for what promises to be a memorable evening at the Bulls’ home finale. Gates open at 6:00pm, with a whole host of entertainment planned to ensure it is a night not to be missed. We have FREE Face Painting, FREE Inflatables and FREE Activities in our Fanzone – with fun for all the family guaranteed before the on-field action gets underway. The night will celebrate another memorable year for sport in Bradford – with all our Community Clubs also invited to join our celebratory pre-match Bullman’s Parade. To book your spot, CLICK HERE.
