Advent & Christmas Services running from 2nd - 25th December and everyone is welcome to attend.
The approach of Advent and Christmas is a unique time to visit Winchester Cathedral.
Attending a service is a great way to start your celebrations, whether you attend the Big Nativity service with your children dressed up as shepherds, or you join the Market Carols after a trip to the Christmas Market. There’s a range of services to attend and you’ll be warmly welcomed by our clergy and congregation.
Please feel encouraged to experience the joy of Christmas inside the cathedral, whether you’re a regular or perhaps you’ve never visited before. Our internationally acclaimed choir are ready to warm your heart with their festive carols and songs.
