Quantity

We start day 2 of our festival with the office of Lauds: the first act of praise and thankfulness at the rising of the sun. This will be sung to Gregorian chant with a final Benedictus by Tomás Luis de Victoria and music will be available to all participants so that they can sing along.

Parking

Parking is available on the street around the village and in St Birinus car park (on Bridge End, opposite the abbey). For the larger events, extra parking will be available in the surrounding fields, as signposted.
