Join us in London for an evening of festive cheer at Dementia UK’s annual carol concert. We look forward to welcoming you, your family and friends for a celebration of carols and readings followed by wine and nibbles.
The concert will be held in the beautiful St George’s Church, designed by John James: an assistant of Sir Christopher Wren. This stunning venue is the perfect setting for carols to be sung and winter spirit to be shared. It will include readings and performances from special guests.
If you would like to remember a loved one in the carol concert programme or on our website, we invite you to take part in ‘Remember a Star’.
Submit their name by Friday 30th October 2026 to have it included in both the printed programme and on our website. Names submitted after this date will be featured on our website only.
Whether this is your first time attending our much-loved carol concert or you have been coming along for several years, we are hugely grateful for your support. By joining us, you will ensure that more families affected by dementia have the support of our specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses. Your generosity means we can be there for more people, so no one faces dementia alone.
“The annual Dementia UK carol concert is the official start of Christmas for us. The highlight of the evening is always the choir, with their sublime singing. If you’re lucky enough to sit in the gallery, you can watch the marvellous organist effortlessly juggling multiple keyboards and foot pedals as the congregation sings along to the carols. Coming together in support of those affected by dementia gives the evening a real sense of shared purpose and a chance to reflect on the deeper meaning of Christmas. We simply wouldn’t miss it.”
– Carey, long term supporter of the event
“It was my first time at the Dementia UK carol concert and I absolutely loved it. It was beautiful, uplifting and incredibly moving to be surrounded by people who understood what our family had been through. Raising money to help families like ours while singing classic carols with a beautiful choir was good for the soul.”
— Kathryn, first-time attendee (2025)
