The annual ‘Follow the Stars’ Christmas Carol Concert, in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support, has been a highlight of Oxford’s Christmas calendar for the past 27 years.
This year it will be returning to the splendour of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, on Friday, December 6, 2024, bringing the highest quality musical performances and festive readings to a packed audience.
Tickets at £30 to £130 are available from ticketsoxford.com or in person at The Oxford Playhouse. The concert will also be live-streamed and free to view online via the JustGiving fundraising page here: https://justgiving.com/fundraising/follow-the-stars
This is not only a huge fundraising event (last year raising a staggering £80,000 for Macmillan) but also a celebration of world-class talent that will thrill everyone in the run up to Christmas.
The star-studded cast of celebrities this year will include Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Toby Jones and Greg Wise, who will be enchanting with their literary readings, as always interspersed with breath-taking musical performances and gloriously uplifting carols.
The music will be performed by Oxford’s pre-eminent vocal ensemble, the Oxford Bach Soloists, conducted by Stephen Grahl, the Director of Music at Trinity College, Cambridge.
