COMING UP: 74th Annual Festival of Carols
Monday, December 1 - 7:30pm
The Cathedral Church of All Saints
Since its inception 74 years ago, this carol service has dwelt at a distinctive ecumenical crossroads. What began in the beloved tradition of King’s College Chapel, Cambridge has blossomed into a rich journey through the Nativity, combining choral music, congregational hymns, sacred readings, and poetry.
This year, we explore the theme Hope Evermore — a message woven throughout the evening. Joined with the plainsong hymn Of Eternal Love Begotten, our spoken word and song alike invite reflection, comfort, and renewal.
Organists from across the region will be joined by a 75-strong Festival Massed Choir comprising singers from throughout the region, as well as a special guest choir.
Guest Reader: The Rev'd Canon LCol (Red) Dr. Gary Thorne
Guest Choir: Galileo Chamber Choir (Andrew Pickett, director)

This event is public and open to all. The Cathedral Church of All Saints is a wheelchair accessible space. There is no charge for admission; however, a freewill offering will be received.
