The York Early Music Christmas Festival was created in 1997 to introduce audiences to the extraordinary wealth of music associated with Advent, Christmas and Epiphany, from the Medieval to the Baroque, intertwined with the sagas, stories and tales of the north.

Artists joining us this Christmas include Ruby Hughes & Jonas Nordberg, Spiritato led by violinist Huw Daniels, Ex Corde & The York Waits, Echo Vocal Ensemble and Ceruleo.

Booking opens from Wednesday 12 August. If you’d like to find out more about how to join us as an NCEM Patron - and support the year-round work of the NCEM – please click here.
