Services
in the Guild Chapel
Monday 21st & Tuesday 22nd December
7.30pm
For many people the choir's annual Carol Services have become a highlight of the festive season. In the beautiful setting of Stratford's Guild Chapel, the choir helps lead the traditional service made popular by King's College, Cambridge. Along with congregational carols and the bible readings which tell the Christmas story, the choir sings carols which reflect on the birth of Christ.
Due to the popularity of the services, they are ticketed (no charge) and booking will open nearer the time.
