Organ Festival 2025

This year, Southwell Minster is marking the return of its Nicholson Quire Organ, after a once-in-a-generation overhaul last year. This involved almost all of its 3,745 pipes being removed, as well as a lot of the inner mechanisms, to be cleaned. After half a year’s work, the Quire Organ returned to working use in time for the busy Christmas season. To mark this, our Organ Festival presents five concerts, including three by internationally-renowned visiting recitalists, and two by our home Organists. We hope you can join us to celebrate!
