Ticketing services allows us to control safe numbers in the Abbey. We aim to have enough tickets for everyone who wishes to attend a service, however on occassion they do 'sell out'. In this event, there will be a waiting list created and you will be contacted when tickets become available again. The waiting list for tickets typically moves very quickly and we are normally able to ensure everyone can attend. It is essential that any unwanted tickets are returned to the Parish Office so we are able to give them to others.
