Concerts at St Peter's
​
St Peter's Church is a popular venue for a variety of daytime recitals and evening concerts.
​
There are regular concerts by a range of different performers including chamber choirs, orchestras and individual recitalists. St Peter's is also one of the venues for the biennial St Albans International Organ Festival and Competitions.
​
Following completion of our building work to replace the nave floor we are now able to take bookings for concerts for 2025/ 2026. The church is a beautiful, light space ideal for concerts and performances and now has flexible seating to accommodate up to 300 people in the nave.
​
We hold Lunchtime recitals on Wednesday at 1pm every week during term time and these raise money for Rennie Grove Peace Hospice. More information available here.
​
If you would like more information about holding a concert at St Peter's please contact Carolyn in the church office on c.alexander@stpeterschurch.uk.com
