Christmas Carol Concert – Friday 18th December

For the 8th year in a row, the sensational Reading Community Gospel Choir returns, set for another sell-out event! Joined again by a live band, they’ll fill the night with soulful gospel renditions of your favourite Christmas carols, and bring in the season with joy.

Winners of the BBC Songs of Praise Gospel Choir of the Year 2019!

Premium: £25 early bird (£30 from 15th Nov)

Standard: £18 early bird (£20 from15th Nov)

Concession: £15**

Like everything, the cost of putting on the concert has gone up this year, so we’ve had to increase our ticket prices a little too. But every ticket purchased helps us continue our vital work, while giving you a pretty fabulous night out in return!
