Hexham Abbey offers a wonderful setting for music and we do
hope you will take the opportunity to join us at one of our events.
Welcome
This year’s Festival has now taken place. We’d like to thank everyone who came to our events, as well as our sponsors and supporters – we couldn’t do it without you!
Dates for your diary – next year’s Festival: 6 – 10 October 2027
Watch our guest director Svend talking to Hexham TV about the 2026 Festival.
This year’s Festival is rich in journeys, musical and actual, crossing continents and oceans, delving into the distant past and bringing remote corners of the globe vividly to mind. Hexham Abbey is a matchless venue for live music; this year we offer orchestra, choral, solo piano, guitar and … protest songs!
What our audiences have said about the Festival:
“We’ve been to all the concerts, listening to beautiful music.”
“A really well thought out programme.”
“Great to have such culture on the doorstep.”
