Hillsborough Castle. Unreserved seating. Car parking is available
There are surely few things that create a more festive feeling than choral singing in a castle at Christmas time. This year, we’re delighted to welcome back the incredible vocal talents of Cappella Caeciliana, one of Northern Ireland’s most original choirs. With a specially created programme of festive readings, poetry and choral music, they’ll be sure to get you into the spirit of the season!
During the interval, enjoy a glass of bubbly or non-alcoholic alternative in the castle’s elegant state rooms. Our expert Hosts will be on-hand to share the rich, inspiring and often surprising history and stories of this working Royal residence.
