To celebrate and mark the Wye Valley Walk's 50th anniversary year this year, the organisers have created 12 incredible walks, all led by local guides, across the county.  The schedule runs from April to October. 

Castle House is a great place to base yourself if contemplating any of the 12 walks.

The Courtyard in Hereford is ready to ruffle some feathers with the most EGGciting panto of the season – Mother Goose!

Packed with cracking jokes, spectacular musical numbers, and more audience participation than you can shake a feather at. The professional cast will bring the traditional pantomime magic to life, combining side-splitting comedy, dazzling costumes, and a heart-warming story that’s perfect for all ages.

Celebrate the most wonderful time of the year and watch and listen to G4 bring glad tidings of great joy this festive season when they appear at Hereford Cathedral on November 19th from 19.30 -21.30.

A celebration of Christmas with plenty of carols for you to sing along with, and readings from members of the BBC Hereford & Worcester team.

The service will be recorded for broadcast over the festive period on BBC Hereford & Worcester.

Doors open 16.00 for 18.00 (90 mins)

Christmas at Hereford Cathedral | Shows and tours

ADMISSION FREE - 1.15PM

The lunchtime performance on the cathedral’s historic Willis organ will feature a sparkling range of musical favourites for the Advent and Christmas seasons. Peter, who as Assistant Director of Music can be heard playing the organ for the cathedral’s daily services, will be visible to the audience on a large screen. He has also promised that the mighty organ console, with its four keyboards, thirty pedals and sixty-seven stops, will be festively decorated for the occasion.

Peter Dyke, Assistant Director of Music at Hereford Cathedral, said: “Music is such an evocative part of Christmas for us all and I love playing the familiar melodies, but also finding sparkling new arrangements of music for audiences to enjoy. This year I’ll include music by Bach, Vierne and more, but I’ll also evoke Vienna with Strauss’s Blue Danube Waltz and conjuring up a snowy landscape with Leroy Anderson’s Sleigh Ride.

The organ at Hereford Cathedral is one of the best instruments in the country and a real asset to our city and county. It’s a huge pleasure to share its power and tonal colour with everyone.”
