Berkhamsted's annual fundraising Community Christmas Celebration, with its mixture of carols, readings, music and songs is different to the normal Christmas Carol Concert. Although the festivities are led by the Rector of St Peter's Church, it is non denominational and features:
🎄 Traditional congregational carols
🎄 Festive music (classic and chart toppers) performed and sung by The Ridgeway Chorale, John Knowles, Rachel Edmunds and Madalina Turan.
🎄 Extracts from the Bible together with modern yuletide messages; either chosen and read by local celebrities and dignitaries or they write and read their own diverse personal messages, often evoking thoughtfulness and laughter.
Readers include:
🎄 Nigel Barden, food and drink national broadcaster
🎄 Robin Ince, Comedian, Poet, Broadcaster and so much more
🎄 Sue Jordan, Mayor of Berkhamsted
🎄 Paul Ryan, local business owner
🎄 Head Boy of Berkhamsted School
🎄 Young people from The Swan Youth Project
🎄 Naughty Elf
This seasonal celebration has an interval, at which mince pies and mulled wine will be served as part of the ticket price.
Doors open at 7.00pm
