Following the sell out event in 2023, 2024 and 2025, the wonderful Ripon Cathedral Choir will sing alongside the renowned St Cecilia Orchestra for a spectacular Christmas concert. Led by the Director of Music, Ronny Krippner, this seasonal concert will celebrate Ripon’s musical excellence at this joyful time of the year. The first part of the concert will feature the popular “Christmas” movements from Handel’s Messiah, followed by a lighter second part of seasonal choral items with audience participation (have your Christmas hat ready). Plus many much-loved carols for everyone to join in! Tickets will be available to purchase on our website soon. FAQ Where is my ticket? Upon booking you will receive a confirmation email.
