Please note, however, that cancellations, changes of dates or venues etc, may sometimes happen, due to circumstances beyond our control. Also, bookings months ahead may still not be finalized.
If you plan to attend an event in the more distant future, please therefore check nearer the time that the details given in this diary are still valid. To make absolutely sure that you have the most recent information, you are very welcome to contact CBC Director direct, and you can also ask him to add your name to our mailing list, if you so wish.
Better still, you may perhaps consider helping us practically by joining "The Friends of the CBC", our official support organization, which has many members, not only locally, but world-wide.
Please note that not all the events listed below are open to the general public: some may be private functions. Weddings are a special case, since they are private bookings, but nevertheless, according to the law of England, still open to the general public, and we include them, and all other private bookings, too, to give you an idea of the variety of CBC work. And everybody is of course most welcome to all our concerts, church services etc!
Ticket prices for concerts etc: These vary with the event, but recently, for CBC's own concerts in Cambridge, the standard price has been GBP 5, with GBP 3 concessions. For CBC concerts organized by others (mostly outside Cambridge), opera performances etc, please use the telephone number given for enquiries.
If you would like to book the CBC for an event of your own, please
go to the Bookings page.
