Christmas Carols by Candlelight 2025

Join us for a magical evening of festive music and celebration at the Insurance Institute of London’s Christmas Carols by Candlelight, held in the beautiful and historic St Katharine Cree Church. In association with the Worshipful Company of Insurers.

🎶 Carols led by Lloyd’s Choir
🍷 Seasonal reception to follow

Step into the atmospheric surroundings of this unique Jacobean church, founded in 1280 and rebuilt in 1630 – the only surviving example of its kind in London. During the service, the church will be illuminated by candlelight, and its historic organ – once played by Handel and Purcell – will be brought to life once again.

This much-loved event is free of charge to London Institute or WCI members and their guests, but places are limited – please register early to avoid disappointment!

If you have any accessibility requirements, we’d love to hear from you so we can ensure you feel welcome and supported.
