Sunday, 13 December 2026 at 2pm - 4pm  

Join us for a magical afternoon of music, stories and festive cheer at our 2026 Christmas Carol Concert.

Bristol University Madrigal Ensemble will perform a joyful programme of much-loved Christmas carols for everyone to sing along to, alongside beautiful, lesser-known seasonal pieces. 

Woven between the musical performances will be a selection of fun Christmas-themed readings and seasonal stories, shared by our wonderful Arnos Vale volunteers.

There will also be a 25-minute interval, when mulled wine and mince pies will be available to purchase in the Spielman Centre, just a short walk from the Anglican Chapel.

About Bristol University Madrigal Ensemble

This talented eight-person vocal ensemble is made up of current University of Bristol students, many of whom also perform with prestigious groups such as the National Youth Choir of Great Britain and Bristol Cathedral Choir. Their wonderful harmonies will fill the Anglican Chapel with the spirit of Christmas.

Accessibility

We have made our venues as accessible as possible. We have a wheelchair ramp up into the café and Spielman Centre and another lift to gain access to the accessible toilet downstairs. We have a wheelchair lift to allow access to the Anglican Chapel (weight limit of 150kg). Please note there is a short walk from the cemetery main entrance to the Anglican chapel, and a short distance from the Anglican Chapel to the Café. We also have designated parking outside of the café and Anglican Chapel for blue badge holders.
