Candlelight Christmas Concert with Wells Cathedral Choir

Wells Cathedral has a rich musical traditional dating back centuries, with its choir (widely considered one of the finest child choirs in the world) having celebrated its 1,100th birthday in 2009. Amongst its most popular events are the annual candlelight concerts, which sees the spectacular medieval building atmospherically illuminated with hundreds of flickering flames. Book your tickets as early as possible to guarantee entry for either of the two nights.
