Tips & Advice

  • Arrive at least 20-30 minutes before the concert, especially for popular services like this, to ensure you get a good seat within your purchased tier.

  • Dress warmly and comfortably, as festive attire is welcome but the cathedral can be cool, even with the festive atmosphere.
  • Bring cash for donations for mince pies and non-alcoholic mulled wine, as well as for purchasing Christmas cards and calendars to support the charity.
  • If you have specific accessibility requirements, contact events@aakss.org.uk in advance to discuss seating arrangements.
