St Andrew Holborn Church
Advent Carol Service
Thursday 5 December, 7pm - 9pm
Alumni, Fellows, parents of current members, friends of Downing and guests are all warmly invited to the annual College Advent Carol Service, this year at St Andrew Holborn Church, 5 - 7 St Andrew Street, Holborn, London, EC4A 3AF. Situated conveniently at the Western edge of the City of London, close to Midtown and the West End, St Andrew Holborn occupies a wonderful site at Holborn Circus and has recently been refurbished.
The service will be led by the College Chaplain, The Rev Dr Keith Eyeons, and the Chapel Choir, directed and accompanied by Dominic Remedios and Matthew Chanwai.
The service is followed at 8pm by a reception to catch up with friends over wine and mince pies.
As we did last year, we are asking all alumni and friends who book a ticket to the Advent Carol Service and Reception to make a donation of £15 towards our Student Support Fund. 100% of your donation will be used to support our many student extracurricular activities, as well as helping students who face an unexpected financial shortfall.
We are also looking for volunteers to do readings during the service. If you would like to take part, please email us.
We hope that you will be able to join us!
Booking will close at 1pm on Thursday 21 November.
Please note, we expect around 200 people to attend this event. Additional seating will be available in the Galleries, but views are restricted. All seating will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage guests to arrive in good time.
If you have any access needs and require a seat in the nave, please email: alumni.events@dow.cam.ac.uk as soon as possible.
Log in to the Alumni and Development Portal to book tickets.
