Carol Singing in Trafalgar Square on Wednesday 24 December 2026
Fill the air with festive cheer, singing carols under the dazzling Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square. 🎄 Invite your dear ones too — we’ll be singing well-known traditional songs and everyone will be able to join in and sing along. 🎶✨
What to expect
We're looking to recreate the welcoming atmosphere of a rural Christmas Eve, where the folk come together to share their love for music and one another, passing on cherished traditions, and delighting in the simple joys of a community gathering.
How you may contribute
- Practice the carols on the list (we'll hold rehearsals throughout December)
- Prepare a carol you might like to sing to us (one that’s not already on the list)
- Wrap up warm (wear your favourite jumper, woolly hat, mittens, etc.)
- Bring an acoustic instrument you’d enjoy playing along with
- Hold a flameless LED tealight candle
- Share small Christmas treats
