Ex Cathedra: Christmas Music by Candlelight

Thu 17 Dec 2026

Step out of the winter rush and into the still, warm glow of candlelight.

Ex Cathedra’s much-loved concerts offer beautiful seasonal music, a sprinkling of favourite carols, and readings to make you smile and reflect, all revealing the quiet magic of Christmas. Encounter the mystery as well as the merriment. Once experienced, they’re never forgotten.
