Welcoming all members of the QM Family

Here are the details of our upcoming events open to the wider QM Family. We have a wide variety from seminars to careers evenings, workshops, Church services, and more.

For more information, please contact events@queenmargarets.com.

Festival of Lessons and Carols

Friday 8th December at 19:00pm

Join our annual Christmastime service, led by the Queen Margaret's Chamber Choir and Cantiamo, joined by tenors and bassists from York Minster. This year we have a special edition of this annual favourite, performing selections from Will Todd's Christmas in Blue. These will be accompanied by our very own live jazz ensemble welcoming a special guest, Amy Coates. Amy was QM Head Girl in 2018/19 and is now making an exciting name for herself on the UK jazz scene as a professional double bassist. We also have Megan Bainbridge, last year’s Head Girl, joining the proceedings!

Of course, the service would not be complete without the traditional carols that really help end the term on a festive high. Undoubtedly, the most popular high service of the year and an opportunity for the wider QM Family to celebrate the Christmas message and bid each other a wonderful Christmas break - one not to be missed!

Festive refreshments will be served from 18:15pm in Centenary Foyer.

New Year's Concert

Friday 12th January at 19:00

Celebrate 2024 in style with an evening of fantastic music presented by the QM Music Department, designed to celebrate the music-making and hard work that has happened throughout the Winter Term. This year, we will be showcasing an exciting hybrid event starting with our choirs and ensembles in the Chapel. This event is always a firm favourite in the calendar with performances from Cantiamo right through to our Senior Orchestra and UVI barbershop quartet. Following an interval and refreshments, parents and YV-UVI students will then make their way to our Chapman Theatre for a party set from our very own 'Lost Sock' funk and soul band, performing a selection of jazz standards and soul classics guaranteed to banish the post-Christmas blues.

Refreshments will be served during the interval.

Lost Sock Preview

The YI-IV girls in Warwick House will have the opportunity to see a special sneak preview of the 'Lost Sock' New Year's Eve gig in our theatre on Thursday 11th January from 18.30-19.15 pm, giving the girls the opportunity to celebrate the new term with their friends. Please can we advise that parents of day girls organise a later collection.
