About
Join us for an evening of spectacular music, sung by the wonderful Choir of St Mary's Cathedral with brass ensemble, along with traditional readings for Christmas.
Seating for this event is unassigned; please arrive in good time. Doors will open at 7pm, and there is often a queue forming by 6:40pm. Some seating has no visibility of the choir.
Please note that this is a religious service, not a concert; the ticket is an optional donation towards the upkeep of the Cathedral, and to the music programme here. Everyone is welcome our Cathedral for all our services.
Tickets
Recommended donation
Maintaining a tradition of six sung services a week, educating our young choristers, and paying our music staff, is a costly endeavour. Your donation goes directly towards the beautiful music you will hear. We ask for this in advance, as with over 900 attendees, it is impractical to collect donations on the night.
£15.00
