Saturday 19th December - Monday 21st December

19:00 - 20:30

A much-loved highlight of the festive calendar, the highly anticipated Carols by Candlelight concerts return to Wells Cathedral this Christmas with three captivating performances on Saturday 19, Sunday 20, and Monday 21 December.

Immerse yourself in a world of festive choral music, sing-along carols and festive proclamations as we journey together to the heart of the Christmas season.

With performances from the world-renowned Wells Cathedral Choir and guest readers from the local community, these concerts offer an unforgettable evening in the spectacular glow of more than 3,000 twinkling candles, illuminating every corner of the Cathedral from floor to vaulted ceiling.

This year, you can also dedicate a candle in memory or celebration of a loved one, and their name will be included in the concert programme to serve as a personal keepsake of the occasion.

Whether you are continuing a cherished festive tradition or discovering the magic of these performances for the first time, expect an evening of uplifting music, reflection and good cheer in the final run up to Christmas, all in one of the UK's most awe-inspiring sacred spaces. Early booking is strongly recommended.

Proceeds from these concerts will support the charitable work of Wells Cathedral (Registered Charity no. 1207269).
