Traditional pattern of Lessons & Carols

Join the clergy and Great Choir of Southwark Cathedral and come and take part in a traditional preparation for the joys of Christmas.

No tickets are required for this  service but please note that it is very busy.  

Doors will open one at 4.45pm.

Groups needs to ensure that all of their party is together before entering the Cathedral, as reserving seats will not be permitted. Any member of the group arriving after the rest of their party has entered will be asked to go to the back of the queue. We will also be asking everyone to ensure that there are no empty seats next to them.

Please be assured that we will try to accommodate as many people as possible, but when all the seating in the Cathedral has been taken, we cannot allow anyone else into the building, as standing is strictly not permitted.

The service will also be broadcast over loudspeakers in Lancelot's Link.
