We will announce the details of our 2020 Christmas services in September 2020.
All are welcome to our Advent and Christmas services and events.
Event listingsMost of our Christmas services do not require tickets; anyone is welcome to attend. All services are free of charge.
You can attend most services by turning up on the day but the very popular Service of Lessons and Carols and Midnight Mass do need free tickets to be booked in advance.
These tickets book up very quickly so they will be released gradually to give everyone a chance to apply. They will be released on:
Tuesday 12th November at 9.30am GMT
Tuesday 12th November at 2.30pm GMT
Thursday 14th November at 9.30am GMT
Thursday 14th November at 2.30pm GMT
Most of our services are not ticketed so if you are not successful in securing tickets this year we hope that you will join us at another service - they are all very special occasions.
You can find a full list of services above.
If you have any questions about our Advent & Christmas services, see our Christmas FAQ.

The Shrine of St Edward the Confessor is one of the most powerful features of the Abbey. To stand in the presence of a man who is both a saint and a monarch is awe-inspiring.
