Organ Celebration
St Giles’ Cathedral will be opening its doors for the first time in over a year for indoor events on Saturday 22nd May. We will be hosting our Sounds on Saturday organ recital series, four concerts of organ favourites, performed by our Cathedral organists. All recitals begin at 5:30pm and will last around 45 minutes.
There is a limit of 100 people at each organ recital and masks must be worn in the building, unless medically exempt.
Tickets cost £6 and can be booked online at www.ticketsource.co.uk. Please note we can only accept card payment for tickets bought at the door.
All proceeds from the recitals will go to the St Giles’ Cathedral Covid Recovery Fund.
